i'm still overwhelmed

I know, i still have not gotten pictures together and still have not posted in forever. but for my own sanity (not really because pretty much i am crazy) i need to do some venting.

First off, job wise, (i am working part time in kindergarten) I HAVE to move schools next year and i am hoping that I can find a part time job. In order to help decrease layoffs, the district decided that all teachers working part-time right now, HAVE to work part time next year. which i wanted to anyway, but my odds of finding part-time jobs are decreasing. FUN FUN. so all 4 of the kinder teachers at my school have to move and have to find a new job. hip hip hooray.

Next-i got out of jury duty after one day! that was a hooray!! it took all day and i didn't get done until just before 5, but i didn't have to return the next day or get stuff for a sub to do with my class!!

*i hope this one makes someone laugh, because it didn't make me laugh* Yesterday, i was running a little late (as always) and was trying to get several things done before heading off to work. so on my out the door, i turn the alarm on and manually lock the bottom lock from the inside since my keys are already in the car with Craig. WRONG!!! They were NOT! they were still inside in my purse! with my car keys, my house keys, my wallet. I did have my phone and Craig. so i start flipping out! call Trevor and he looks up lock smiths. call my mom to check and see if we gave her a key. no of course not. why would i do something half way smart. we had given a key to Trevor's parents, but they cannot answer any phone calls at work. UGGH!! big uggh! meanwhile, i am flipping out about how on earth i'm gunna get back in the house and get my purse and get to work. I try calling a locksmith, but of course, they are busy and have NO one who can assist me. good one. Trevor has a key at work, but I drop him off at work every morning. that doesn't work.

FINALLY< (someone must have prayed to knock some sense back into me) Heavenly Father reminded me that I have a hide a key for my car and that Trevor does have a house key. i calm down a little, see if the key will actually start my car and then thankfully call my mom and Trevor and let them know I will be running to grab a key and back to my house! i even made it to work on time!

I am the person who locks myself out often. many times, i leave my keys in my car (it just happened about 3 weeks ago) and so i do keep an extra key for my car. well, now i know that i need the same for my house. fun.

BUT, the good news is, Craig was with me outside of the house and not in, AND, i did not grab a rock and throw it thru our back door, like I was very tempted to. SO HA HA HA HA. did anyone laugh? probably not. o-well, lesson learned.

On to other things, i still have my silly first year teacher classes and i went last night and learned very little, but was very bored. I still have a million things for work and our house is sadly in need of some work.

But, i love Craig, i love Trevor even more and I am grateful that we are a family. I'm grateful for the wonderful messages I get to hear at church each week. i'm grateful for the many wonderful examples in my life who help give me hope that i can do things. (family and at church) I was asked to get together musical numbers for a RS dinner and I was VERY overwhelmed with how many people i needed to help. but, surprising to me (not the Lord) many of the wonderful ladies I called were very willing to help, and those that weren't were not able to go.

My family is wonderful! i have great in-law family whom I consider to all be a part of our family. I have a wonderful family of my own. they all teach me things that I need to remember and I am very blessed. So, very soon, i will get my act somewhat together and do better and recording our lives. But for now, I need to run and get ready for the day because I get to go talk to the doctor about our precious baby #2!

overwhelmed

I am ashamed a little at myself in one way, but in another way, there are a lot of reasons for my not posting. we have been so very busy! sorry, this is a little of complaining. BUT, on the bright side, it is THURSDAY! one more day closer to the weekend.

I "get" to take my licensing test, AGAIN. long story short, i took the wrong test because the right test was not create when I signed up and passed the general elementary test. now, i have to retake the early childhood test and I'm praying that i remember enough and can pass it the first time. UGGH!! so this is this saturday. one more saturday almost completely wasted.

then, i have my first year teacher classes so often, not to mention the homework for those. i still have things to do just for my kinder class above that!! i'm barely staying afloat here.

trevor has been so wonderful and understanding. he has been great. he always is.

craig is so fun! He's talking more and more every day! the other morning, when taking trevor to work, he saw the moon and he said moon!! i didn't even know where he learned that word! i don't think we've talked about it with him. he's picking up so many things and becoming less and less of a baby every day.

he jumped in his crib (we still haven't gotten his big boy bed yet, ugh) and it fell out from under him three times in one night. the last time, i just pulled the mattress out and put it on the floor. so two nights he has been on the floor. but last night, he woke up around 1 and started crying and walking downstairs. i called him (me still being out of it) and followed him, calling his name several times. finally i caught up to him on the landing of the stairs and carried him back up to bed. he slept the rest of the night with us. which meant i didn't sleep very well. so tonight, i need to make sure to put up a fence over his door in case he wakes up again.

off to school!
