A little about lately.

We have been really busy with school back in and me having to take one to Corner and the other all the way to Dora everyday. I have a few hours to myself before I have to pick Christopher up at 12 PM. I drop him off and go for my 3 or 4 or 5 mile walk sometimes with Leigh Ann buit mostl by myself since she works late at night and doesn't get home til early morning. Then I go run errands or home to clean or scrapbook. I have gotten a full year of Mary Elizabeth's book caught up, now I am only 1 year behind and then I will both of their scrapbooks caught up to present. Mary now has 5 or 6 books and Christopher has 4 or 5 books. Yes I take alot of pictures of the kids and they have alot of albums. If anyone is interested in coming to scrapbook with me sometime let me know.

Also I have taken on a new job as of last Friday. I am now a substitute teacher. Wish me luck. I am not sure when I will actually work for the first time. I guess whenever a teacher or the system calls me. I like the idea of the same hours as Mary and only having to work when I want to. I can actually tell them no I don't want to work today. Never been able to do that before.

I have also taken on the task of working with our Lads to Leaders Leaderettes program at church, teaching the k-5th graders a new program called "Junior Leaders". I am still trying to figure out when and how I am going to set a schedule for the children that are interested in doing this. I guess I will have a meeting soon with the parents and children who are interested and see what works for them as well as myself.

Hope all are well and have a wonderful week. Happy Labor Day!!!

I already have 4 scrapbooks for Hannah! I try to use way too many pictures. For her first year I did one for each 3 mth span (0-3, 3-6, etc.) Although I am behind too. It can be expensive! Anytime you need a scrapping buddy - give me a call! I hope your new job goes great.
