Job

Well, yesterday was a very exciting day. I have been subbing a lot at a local school district. In March until the end of the school year I will be filling in for someone who is going on maternity leave, and I was emailed about this back in November and agreed to fill in for this person. I am very excited about this and the experience I will get. Well, yesterday I had a call from the special education coordinator at the same school asking me if I could do a month long sub job at the same school, knowing I would be back in March. I told her yes, so I start work bright and early Monday morning at 7:45 AM. I am excited about this too and getting to know more people at the school. So, that is the exciting news I have for now.

Pizza Delivery guy

A true story

So tonight, Ben and I ordered a pizza for delivery since it was wet and cold out. By the time the pizza delivery man got to my place, he rang the door bell and beat on the door. A bit scary if you ask me. So I go to answer it and he said " I am sorry that that I am late but I just got robbed and have to go call the police". I gave him the money, and said that I was sorry. I was not sure what else to say, and he was a bit scary looking if you ask me. So, I am hopping he got everything all worked out, it was just such an odd thing to say to someone while delivering a pizza. I think, he might have been a bit spooked too, which would explain the banging on my door. sigh....

Christmas Break

Well, today was the last day of school for the semester! I subbed today and all went well and as a bonus, the student I was working with left earlier than expected which gave a nice end to the day. Now, the count down to Christmas may continue. I am one of those people that has to have everything done way ahead of time if at all possible, so of corse I am all finished with my shopping and have now moved on to help various family members with their shopping; this of corse includes wrapping, which is one of my favorite parts! In fact, I usually wrap almost everyones Christmas gifts except mine. So today I will be finishing up some Christmas wrapping and at some point transport the gifts to my parents house. So, as if you can not tell already Christmas is one of my favorite holiday's the other being the Fourth of July. One of my favorite things about this particular holiday is getting together with family and friends and catch up on how they have been etc. Also, I love to get presents for friends and family members. So now I am off to finish some wrapping. Have a great day!

A great start to December

I woke up this morning and there was SNOW. I am not talking the little flakes that we get but big flakes for Dallas. It will not stick but it was so much fun to wake up to snow this morning. I received two texts from people this morning about snow which was fun. So here is to enjoying the snow for the day.

Thanksgiving

This year for Thanksgiving my mom invited over some family friends and we all enjoyed a great late lunch and watched the Cowboy game. Also, this weekend Ben and I are off to the SMU football game. I have a few friends in town and am having lunch with one of them today :)
