My Week

What I did this week:
  • wrote "c", "t", & "r" twice on 500 beads for a grand total of 1000 times
  • went to three (yup, that was a 3) different Walmart's to find Katelyn a "Hello Kitty" lunch box.  Thankfully I was successful and tragedy was adverted.
  • completed a project to give to my juniors on Family History.  I hope that find it as interesting as I do.
  • printed labels for 35 primary cd's
  • planned tomorrows sharing time
  • cleaned my house (several time, actually. I do have a pre-schooler, you know)
  • ironed by clothes for school next week
  • went on a date with the hunky hubs
  • went visiting teaching
  • made primary room signs
  • went to campus for the same transcripts that I could have printed off of my computer and send to APS, but they insisted that they had to come from UNM.  Ugh...
  • wrote on this blog, TWICE!
  • family night with a rarely seen cousin
  • lots, and lots, of laundry
  • and to top it all off, Girls Night Out!!
And this is my vacation.  Next week I am back at school.  I can only imagine how busy I will be then...

    Hostess

    This morning, the Today Show ran a story about the Hostess company and their recent filing for bankruptcy. Because of the the yummy treats we all love (but rarely eat in my case) would go away. Treats such as these (see below) would disappear!

    I rarely buy treats like this because lets be realistic, we don't need them. But the idea of ding dongs, hoho's and twinkie's not being available for the occasional treat made me a bit sad. Since I had already scheduled a trip to Walmart I splurged and picked up a box. My kids will be so excited.

    Trying again

    Just now I discovered the iPhone blogger app. Maybe this will help me be better about blogging, maybe not. It's worth a try, wouldn't you agree?

    Christmas is over, New Year's too. The kids are back to school and I have just one short week before I report to my student teaching position. This term is be very, very busy, but hopefully it will go by fast. The big prize is waiting for me if I survive it; graduation!

    Other things are happening, of course. Life doesn't remain static so I can finish school. The kids are busy, Brandon too. Work, school, calling, activities, and sports, to name a few. I will be happy for summer when we can spend our days on the pool.

    Since picture are often what makes the blog interesting, I will leave you with one of our new dog, Daisy. She is a two year old spaniel mix that we rescued. Jaz and her get along well, for the most part, but they have their moments. Her personality is very interest, to say the least. It's easiest to give you an explanation through her nickname, which is "crazy Daisy."
