When It Rains, It Pours!

Okay, I have been busy! The good news is that I have accomplished a bunch of things in a short period of time.

At school, we started our final trimester. Only 11 weeks of school to go before our summer vacation. The down side of this is that I have 250 new students to train on computers. I love my job, but the first week of a new trimester doesn't allow me the free time during class that I have found so delightful. Today, I started my second week of the trimester, and look how well the kids are doing, I am at least able to update my blog!

Taxes. Finally done! We are even getting money back from both Federal and State.

Birthdays. What was I thinking having two kids born in March and only 2 days in between their birthdays? I have been busy birthday shopping and sending stuff to North Carolina. I finally have all my birthday shopping done. (Even Kathleen's birthday shopping is done and her birthday is in April, so I am ahead).

Joe's Eagle Court of Honor. More like a court of horror right now. I can't seem to focus on it and I am worried that I have no clue of what I am supposed to do. We are having this court on Sunday, ready or not!

I am blond once again! Yesterday Joe, Sarah and I got our hair done. Now when I go crazy, at least I will have cute hair.

The cousins are coming! For some reason, my house is a mess. It is like I have had no time to clean the house for about 2 weeks. Yesterday, I did tackle the fridge. I did not just clean it, I over- hauled it. I moved shelves and organized everything. Now if I can just get the floor vacuumed.

I have been playing taxi driver for the last few weeks. It is a full time job running both Joe and Sarah to and from work. To further complicate things, they are on different schedules. This means I am driving someone every day.


Church. Church always keeps me busy. Tonight we have our Relief Society birthday party. What about Lost? I sure hope I don't start getting sick around 7:45 tonight and just have to go home.

We are going to Italy on June 1st! I have been learning Italian- or at least trying. I started using Rosetta Stone back in January. Right now I am on level 2. My goal is to be done with at least level 3 by June. When I have free time, I try to arrange hotels. So far I have hotels in Rome, Pompei, and Bari. I am about a third of the way done.

I have finally made a decision on what school to get my masters from. I will be taking courses from Southern Utah University. Hopefully in the next two weeks, I can get my act together and apply for the program. I have until May, but I really want to get it done sooner.

I got my bills paid today!

My car is registered as of today. It wasn't even due until the end of March!

I like having a list of things I have accomplished when life is so hectic. It puts me in a better mood to have a long "done" instead of a long "to do list."

That is quite the list! We need to do our taxes... and our bills.. and our house is a disaster. I did clean the fridge though!

Holy crap, that is a whole lot going on. I love to have things crossed on my list too, it makes me feel like I'm making headway! Good luck with everything.
