Tuesday....

So we saw another house... it's something that David got so very excited... and there isn't much to fix... it's going for a great price, and David liked it. that is the biggest thing. I could live in any house, make it my house, my home. But having and knowing David likes it, is excited about it, is actually doing things that lead to us actually owning it... that is great.

It's out of town, in a snow storm it takes 12 min. to get to town. I'm a little saddened, mostly because of the distance we'd need to drive in and how often we'd be driving in.... of course we are far from the noise, traffic, and it's got a friggin great yard.

Besides that I feel so gross. I'm getting sick again. I'm just feeling kinda blah in a dripping snotty sorta way. I'm still able to function and at some points in the day i don't think about how full my face feels or how sore my throat is.... Ok I'm done no more complaining. David, i think, thinks i complain too much... which is probably true, I guess i'm in the habit. I am trying to stop.... Sigh...

School is going well - except that EVERYONE is sick... Two teachers were out today and we didn't have enough substitutes.... there are a bunch of kids out from every class... here and there and some on some days.... and others on other days... one kid was in the Hospital.... but besides kids puking, greeny yellow stuff comeing out of a few face holes and the stomach aches, the fevers, the headaches.... it's al worth it to help teach young minds..... or is it?? gross much.

Sigh... Tomorrow a mircale coudl happen mabye a snow storm, or power outage... then we'd all get a penalty free Rest day..... sigh a girl can dream, along with every 'sorta' sick teacher at CCA...

Ciao

Missing...

I'm just sitting here at what was supposed to be a meeting, but it got rescheduled.
SO
Now I'm just sitting here.

It's not so bad, but I really wish I could be a few other places...
-With David at the rink - watching him play the sport that means so much to him. It's werid that I have never seen him play. ever. It's somethign that I've wanted to do but it's never come up... it's never really been talked about. I know it's a passion of his, but the oportunity has never come up.
-In Moncton with my girls. All the girls I've been mising and they are all together, together talking, reminicing, laughing, and I'm just sitting here.
-With Momma, just talking about life, her's, mine. Just talking with Momma.

Work is going well, it's a bit easier now that I'm getting into the swing of things. I'm falling into a routine, but routine means that I'm getting a little bored. Somedays I love what I do, I can't wait to get to School, see the kids, teach new thoughts, ideas... somedays, well, I just think what on earth could make the day good, go smoothly, go fast so i can come home and think about anything else. I think I'm going to be doing this for another year... mostly because they aren't saying that they won't have me back, but a little bit because I don't have any back-up jobs just in-case I don't want to continue.

Life is going well, the house serching is still going on - we aren't in a hurry, and Janet we are NOT, I reapeat, NOT pregnant. We are just looking to find a place that is ours, that we can work with, grow in and one day Start a family (one day, not this day, not any day, anytime soon). There have been a few that popped up but after much talking, and praying we think thet best thing to do is wait jsut a little longer, a few more months... that way we have a (surprisingly) large dent in the Student Loans... and a bit more for down payment the timing will be better, well the finacses anyways... since I think I could move tomorrow if God just showed us the house...

I'm feeling mentall worn down i think, jsut the last couple of days, like i wish teh world would stop spinning out of control. ... i'll get over it - - -- I always do....

Ciao

Beautiful!

Ahhh, Another Snow Day

The best thing about snow days is the Sleeping in!!

A good sleep in is one of those things you never really appreciate until it's just about over. Just as you’re about to get out of bed everything is perfectly perfect and you just wish for a few more minutes to stay in bed. There are a few requirements needed for a great sleep in. Most importantly are the right blankets and PJs. You have to be swimming in ‘comfy’. The lighting in the room should be dim, almost non-existent; just enough so that if your eyes open by complete accident... you can still roll over and go back to sleep.

It starts with blankets, just enough so that you are toasty, not sweating... who likes to wake up sweaty... gross. Ok so the temperature is set as a comfy level, and you are sleeping comfortably. I personally like to have my puff (comforter, but it’s puffy so I call it a puff) all bunched up around my chest and neck. Not suffocating me but blocking out all areas that cold could try to come in. I’m also a big fan of pillows, one or two behind my head, one I can hug, and a few to prop my feet up with, the feet pillows are optional.

Sigh! A good sleep in is something that everyday should start with. ok now that that is over we can move onto other more important things. David and I are seriously looking into buying a house... I’d like it to be the sooner the better.

There are a few houses we are looking into. One of them is a cute bungalow. It’s in Princton heights, a very nice subdivision. It’s close to our friend’s house, and still in town with out having to be in a dumpy part of town. There are 3 bdrm and a small bath, but a 2nd bath was started and never finished in the basement. It needs some work (Windows and maybe siding in the next 5 years), but is going for a GREAT, GREAT price. I wouldn’t mind fixing it up because then it’d be more like ‘my’ house. Any house we buy won’t be completely ‘my’ house... but if we get one with and un finished basement, and a few things to work on, then we can make it Just the Way We Want...

There is another house, a split entry it’s out of town, not very far but it’d be a 7 min drive in at least. It’s a 9-year-old house, with a great yard. It’s nice, but it’s about 20ish thousand dollars more than the first house... so it’s newer but more... seems that’s how it works. Aha.

So If anyone out there has a house that they want to sell us pretty cheap- - just let me know!!

Ev'y's Coming in 7 days!!!! YEAH oh man!! I can't Wait

Truro...

So I've lived in truro for what - 9 years... and now... because Ev'y might be moving here it all of a sudden got to be fun to say... sigh... I see where I rank on the fun list. jeepers... it saddens me...

And Again

WooHoo !!

One more day off work! I love it! Does that mean I'm lazy?
Hmmm... maybe, but i think i'll get over it.

Today I can continue to do the Laundry and Chores. Hopefully I'll be able to get living room boxes organized and put them away... and change the bookcases around, and put other things in the spaces that the books once took up.

SNOW DAY

Have I mentioned that I love snow days -
1) I don't have to work
2) I can sleep in - more about the no work, but the snow is the percipitaing factor..aha
3) The snow is so pretty. I love the snow.

Today I'm going to try to get a few things done around the house, and if the wind ever dies down walk into the school and get my classroom organized. We'll see how the day goes.

I can't wait for Feb. well it is Feb. but I mean I can't wait for all the things going on in Feb. First it will be my first Valentine's Day as a Wife... and the weekend of the 10th we are heading to Moncton to visit... oh Brannie and Holly can we borrow some floor, or a tiny single bed... what ever you got we'll take!! and then Ev'y come's home for a visit!!! AND I CAN"T WAIT.. I crave her! Ev'y - it's not fun joking about not seeing me in truro... It's not funny at all.

Well I should get going on the errands and what not.
