Thinking of those two special men in my life.
Daddy even though you are in heaven now you are still in my heart and thoughts. I am so proud to be your daughter.
Steve-you are such a great dad to our kids. You are such a gift to our family. We all love you.
:)Time to grill the steaks!!

Short People.....
have short attention spans, use short words, don't sit in their short chairs at their short desks, and can only be quiet for a short amount of time. I am very thankful for the opportunity to make some extra money for the family and am extremely thankful that I do NOT teach first grade full time. I do not have a calling to teach first grade. I could lie and say I enjoyed the challenge but why?? I will enjoy that tomorrow is the last day and I can go cash that lovely check!!
Also don't look in my closets!!

Is this too mean? I apologize to all the short people in the world!
Garage sale this weekend and I am sure I will not enjoy that either but again money is my motivation. After subbing the last week of June in fifth grade I will be finished doing anything for "the money" for the rest of summer!Yeah!Also don't look in my closets!!

Failing Grades
Since I did not complete my weekend assignments I AM FAILING summer:(
I did the bathroom, the porch, moved Elliot our, sorta cleaned his room, cleaned the porch(I should have done a before and after because it was awesome and yet I am the only one who noticed), and trimmed fence row in backyard.
Doesn't seem like much.....and that trend continues today. Worked outside for a bit, bike has 2 flat tires! Then went to school to check in with teacher I am subbing for tomorrow, hung out with Andrea. Cleaned 2 bags of garbage out of hallway drawers.
I alsogot tried to get some details of Ohio trip organized. Only a month away. I really am trying only to plan enough to stay sane and yet be relax and flexible with the other details.
Still trying to "find" the perfect word to put on the dining room wall. Redoing the kitchen is my reward for being nice during the Ohio trip.... So back to the room.....Erin has EAT on her kitchen wall so I can't copy her. Some words I am considering: relish,renew,faith,family,celebrate,enjoy,clean up,sit down,pray,---why can't I think of the perfect word? I still have time because hobby lobby doest have the chip board letters on sale yet.
Other thoughts----what about going by Kate? Seems so much more grownup than Kathy. Well this isnt getting my dresser drawers cleaned out and I will do that today!!!!!

Summer Lesson Plans
I should have started on this earlier. I don't know why I didn't. I always turned my lesson plans in on time! How did I miss taking care of myself ---again???
So yesterday when I got (another) call to sub for summer school, I got the distinct feeling that my summer was slipping away. Yes I had cleaned the bathroom!!! (This is not a small feat---old tile and grout attracts dirt.) But I was already worrying about time slipping away before I had any more exciting accomplishments. That's when I realized I need to do lesson plans for my summer. Long term planning looks like this:
June--objective: Clean house, sub at summer school
July--objective:vacation and recovery,mental prep for school
