Its school time again.....

So we are finishing up the first week of school today ........ok so my caffene has kicked in! hehe Anyways as I'm a PTO board member we had our first official board meeting yesterday. And I have gotten involved in even more things this year again (*mental note - start getting there as the meeting starts so they ask someone else...LOL) But this is the first morning that I have not been at the girls school for any reason. The last two mornings I was there for the kindergarten bus kids. But really this isn't a big deal as I don't have to work around my youngest being home this year - she is in first grade now. Man they grow fast. So I have tons of free time. But I now have a potentiol job at the school and am just waiting to hear back from the mom in charge - literally - our principals kids go there too. But she is cool. Its only part-time but its better than nothing at this point in time.

And then when I went to post this it made me log back in and I lost the rest of this blog.....grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! So lets see how much I remember of what I wrote here....

Our big project of the last few weeks has been getting our oldest into her own room in our house. This entailed moving the computers out of that room and into the living room; finding a new home for our loveseat couch; and me sorting through lots of crap that I had in the computer room, living room and my bedroom to make room for it all in my bedroom. So it also meant rearranging my room too. But I was happy about that part of it. But we got a free frame and box springs for her and just had to buy a mattress. Gotta love freecycle.org! Its the sorting of my stuff and getting rid of things that is the hard part for me. I've heard a lot about Pack Rats Anonymous lately......

Tonight I have new volunteer meeting for our church. I will be a worship leader in the 2/3 grade room. Which means I get to sing and jump around for the kids, run games, etc. I'm excited, my voice isn't that great but the other mom who is the only worship leader at this time said neither is hers - so I feel so much better about this than I did before. We won't start the new year until the 16th but again I'm excited. I chuckled because we also got a call about sheparding in the K/1 room where my youngest is. I can't do both and my hubby says he doesn't think he could handle it. Something along the lines of "my parents made too many commitments when we were kids and were always stretched thin." Doesn't matter that you set your availability schedule - he still says no. Oh well, what to do. I feel like this is the best place for us and that I am as at home here as I am in Lansing at South. But he is reluctant to commit to even being a member of the church because of the above reason. One to better and brighter things.....

My women's small group (Bible study) kicks off this week Wednesday so I am happy to see my friends from last years group again. I have always noticed that I glean more from the Bible through Bible studies. So I am looking forward to that and the Women's retreat at the end of this month throught SLCC. Well better get back to cleaning.....
