for-ev-er

I know, it's been a while. I'm really not too great at this. Oh well.

Life as of recently:
Work has once again begun. I am teaching 6 periods this year instead of 5 which means less prep time and more students, but I'm ok with that. So far it only seems like a have 2 trouble makers. I can handle that.

The state changed our curriculum the week before school started. I am now teaching Professional Communications. It still fulfills the required speech credit but is more college/career focused. I'm glad.

I finally gave in. After 2 years of buying work purses that break way too easily I decided to order a custom made canvas bag from www.mudpuddlebags.com I can't wait for mine to come in! They are very well made and the X-Large Tote can hold the whole world and keep me organized. An added bonus, it can later be used for a diaper bag! I mean, ya know, some time down the road....

Daniel and I have started house hunting. We are not really planning on buying anytime before June, but we figured it doesn't hurt to go look. Now is the time!

My oldest sister and her fam all moved to California for my brother-in-laws job. Sad to think I wont be able to see Andrew and Claire next time I'm in Weatherford. I'm saving my pennies for a plane ticket!

I'm in need of easy, yummy, CHEAP meals. Any suggestions? I think my husband is sick of taco soup & chili...

I've been reading through Exodus. Sometimes I get frustrated when it says "and God hardened Pharaoh's heart" but then I think of how the faith of the Israelites and Egyptians must have grown through those plagues. Makes me wonder whose actions God has influenced to teach me more about Him.

I'm going to make this tonight. Let's hope I don't mess it up....

Well. That's all I can think of. Be blessed.
