many days, fewer pictures

life is getting in the way of taking pictures. or it could just be my forgetfullness. here is what i have managed to capture...

September 19th: pacifier cookie making for jennifer's baby shower

you can't look at that and not laugh

September 20th: after school caribou with ivette

September 21st: no picture

September 22nd: last minute picture, watching TV in my room before bed

September 23rd, 24th, 25th: no pictures. whoops.

September 26th: pacifier cookies at jennifer's baby shower

September 27th: described my mood

i've decided to use my awesome camera and try to get crafty/artistic with some pictures

September 28th: yummy homemade dinner

September 29th: filling out forms, loving the pen

we have a plethora of candy in our house for some reason right now. so this afternoon, without thinking, i ate too much of it. i still have a tummy ache, hours later. i'm turning into my kindergartners! so tomorrow is my prep day, and Oct. 1st starts my healthy living challenge. pretty much i'm going to get a workout schedule and plan out healthy meals and not eat a ton of candy, haha. it also means get organized and don't procrastinate :)

i'm typing while laying in bed with my window open and listening to rain. i hope it keeps raining because i'd love to fall asleep to it.

going to pack my lunch, maybe write a new seating chart for my kids on the carpet, and then fall asleep. i'm beat. tomorrow is thursday and PAY DAY! too exciting.

goodnight calm and quiet.

already sick

i assumed i'd get sick this year, but i didn't know it'd be so soon. i've had a fever and sore throat the past 2 days and today i got a substitute and didn't go into school today (i went yesterday when i'm pretty sure i had a fever, but took medicine and stuff - it was a long day). but here's what's been happening.

September 14th: favorite painting, on my wall

September 15th: no picture. whoops.

September 16th: smoothie mom made me for dinner when i was sick

September 17th: fever, sore throat, headache, tv all day, no school

i just want to get better. i kind of missed not going to school today, it was weird. i don't know what else i'm going to do today. might be a movie night. of course i'm sick during the weekend, my only free time off. well, i'm off to watch some more CSI. happy friday.

aching legs, aching feets

longest. monday. ever.

September 11th: the example i made for one of our centers

yes, my saturday nights are lame

September 12th: classroom jobs chart

September 13th: monday morning coffee

and my car clock does say 5:48, on my way to school

today was a long day. tomorrow might be longer (i may be at school until 5:30 or 6). my parents were stressing about finances tonight which makes me scared to get out on my own because i make like no money compared to a lot of other people. but oh well, i can't stress about that when i have a million and one things to do for school

i'm gonna go take ember on a walk and try to squeeze in a quick run/bike.

off the face of the earth

it's been 20 million years since i've blogged. and, of course, i have missed a few pictures along the way. life has been so busy and hectic, i can't even just get a moment to myself. it's saturday, and it has been both lazy and productive. here's what has been happening in my life...

August 29th: an apple a day keeps the doctor away

yes, that is the size of the bite i took. whoops.

August 30th: crown in the back of the car

August 31st and September 1st: both days without a picture

September 2nd: what is taking over my life and why i have been forgetting to take pictures

September 3rd: cute and tiny caribou sample

September 4th: after we finished running the gauntlet in the mountains

September 5th: gem mining in the mountains

September 6th: chris' legs

September 7th: no picture

September 8th: alice and wonderland cup

September 9th: scholastic magazine which i enjoyed looking through on my teacher workday

September 10th: dress i thought about wearing to brian's going away party

i went out last night for the first time in a long time. brian's friends rented out a room in a bar for his going away party (although now he may not even be leaving until after christmas) and we drank and danced the night away. it was fun. today i laid around and went to school for a few hours to work. i just had a salad for dinner and am finishing up this post. i brought a lot home with me to do, but i can't decide if i'll do it tonight or tomorrow. i'm really exhausted tonight. monday starts many consecutive 5 day weeks with the kids. i hope i'm ready for this!

i will try to be better about picture taking (hopefully more with my camera) and blogging.

never forget
