It's been a nice day...of doing nothing.

Tomorrow I begin my career as a part-time substitute teacher again. I put it off for a while, so I could enjoy my time off, but I am now ready. I am only going to sub at my kids' schools. Mostly the Elementary school where I worked last year and OCCASIONALLY the middle school.

My first job, tomorrow, is for a 5th grade teacher. Should be fun considering these are my kids from last year. I pray they will be good for me even though I KNOW they will be excited!

The next day I am doing a half day (afternoon only) for Jake's 3rd grade teacher. I love 3rd grade! I'm excited to do this one. Next week I am subbing Wed, Thurs, and Fri for the same teacher. It's going to be weird being in Jake's classroom all this time.

As much as I miss teaching, I just don't know how I would be able to handle it this year. Our kids' extra curricular activities are much more time consuming this year and we run constantly with something to do every single weekday. Plus, I currently have all 3 of mine in orthodontic treatment, so those appointments take time. I wouldn't be able to foster a sweet boxer if I was working full time either....and I love that!

I forgot to post the following pics last week, but they are of Jake's golf class. He is participating in an after school program that teaches golf. He loves it!!


Richard and I might go watch the first game of the World Series tonight....although I must admit I would be very content to stay in and relax. Practices have been cancelled tonight and Richard's boys asked if they could stay with their mom to go to a birthday dinner for Matt with her...so we have a lot less than usual going on tonight. YAY!

Don't you just love it when you have a day (and night) to do absolutely nothing?! They don't come around very often! Enjoy your night!!

The golf class looks like fun. Congrats on your part-time substitute teaching! It seems like the school districts are always in great need of teachers to help out. You rock!
