GOD IS GOOD! Celebrate with me!

I will be starting as the head pre-k teacher (through HeadStart) at Taylor Elementary School next week. I will substitute until the paperwork is completed. I should be official by the 26th. ;)

Hallelujah!

Can you tell I'm ADHD this evening?

(Picture I took last year. lol.)
Come to the fair this weekend! Looks like a lot of fun, and you can see me. Haha. :)
Here's the schedule.


General Admission: $5 daily (Hand Stamp available for same day re-entry)
You may purchase a pin for $10 to receive admission for all 4 days.
Children 6 and under admitted FREE
Active Military admitted FREE with ID
Parking is free every day!

PRAISE!

I have an active teacher's license! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Hallelujah!

Thanks for your prayers. :)

We've made it halfway through the week!

No need to for extra exercise time today, my friends. Between dancing like a fool with a bunch of pre-kindergarteners, and then running back in forth in a gym for about 45 minutes today with children who don't seem to ever get out of breath (unlike their substitute teacher), I am content with a good day of exercise. I sense soreness tomorrow...which will probably get worked out doing the same things again for the next two days. I love my job. :)

Your Spanish word for the day: correr - to run
Common uses in an ESL classroom: Corre! (Run!) and Correremos. (We will run.)

And now I go back to more packing (and a hot shower to end my day). Foothills is fast approaching...Gotta set up tomorrow!

Tuesday

Today has been a bit better for me. My emotions have stayed in check. I haven't gotten any medical or employment updates, but my focus is geared toward this weekend right now. It's the local Foothills Country Fair, and I have a booth for my jewelry. I'm working towards getting most of my items ready this evening because tomorrow night we will get home late from church. I will have to set up Thursday after work.

I'm gonna get back to it. Hoping to make it to be by 9:30PM so that 5:30 AM doesn't look so rough tomorrow.

It's Monday.

Every had one of those moments where you suddenly come to terms with all the things in your life that you can't control...and you freak out....and then you think of all the things that you can can control, but you feel defeated from all the things that you can't control...so you freak out again?

I do believe this is where faith in God comes in (and lots of prayer). After all, if I wasn't faced with the realization that I am utterly unable to concur life on my own, then why would I need to rest in the arms of my Creator?

Has anyone noticed that it's only Monday? Oh Lord, give me strength for tomorrow...and the day after that...and all the days following. Praying you all have a blessed week, and that we all find comfort in the arms of our Father in heaven.

Keep me in prayer, my list of requests grows longer....

My job (still waiting)
My health (waiting on blood work about my thyroid and insulin levels)
My role as a leader in ministry
My mess -- i.e. our home -- Which has grown in clutter to the point that I'm so overwhelmed by it, I can't figure out what to do about it.
My emotions (stress + PMS + a week full of getting up at 5:30 AM = ROLLER COASTER)

Tonight I will take the time to count my blessings before I go to sleep. After all, they do far outweigh my worries.
