lovin life

Well, things are getting into a rhythm now I think. Work is going well. I wouldn't say I've had a bad day yet. It'll happen eventually, I know. But right now, I'm loving it. That's not to say it's perfect. I've been cussed at a bunch of times and I currently have four kids suspended for various things, but it'll be ok. I love my school. I love my fellow teachers. I love my administration (which is a big improvement). An example- I've been sick all week. I went home from work on Tuesday. First thing Wednesday morning (or the first time she saw me) one of my assistant principals made a point to make sure I was feeling better. I was amazed. This same AP apologized to me during the second week of school for all of the student changes going on in my classes. She's great. All of my admins are great. They are all so personable and real with us. I'm loving it.

Things with Joey & the wedding are going well. He started a new job as a valet. It's taking some getting used to because it's a weekend job, so it cuts out a lot of our weekend time together. But it's not as bad as we both thought it would be. Wedding plans are coming along. We're meeting with the DJ this weekend. My dress is in and fits and all. They are putting the bustle on for me. I'm picking it up on Oct 3 or so. I'm having my bridal portaits taken on Oct. 10. I think it's finally hitting me that this is real. I mean, I've known it's real. But I'm less than three and a half months away from being someone's wife. It's crazy. I can't believe it. Every little step now seems like we're running to the altar. All the big things are done (well, except addressing all those invitations!), but they seem so unimportant in the scheme of things, at least right now. But, it's coming together. We're getting excited. We had a great first shower (thanks to the most amazing MOH ever- Sarah). And we're having two more in October. We rented a storage unit to store stuff because we didn't have anywhere to put it. We're looking to find a place to live in November or December (well that's when I'd move in). There's a house we kinda have an eye on, but we'll have to see.

I'm back in the choir at church now and I can't believe how much I missed it! I'm going on the retreat this year...and I'm super excited about it!!!

Alright, well I'm off to maybe get some work done. Hope you're having a blessed day!!!
