GRRRRRRR....... I can't take anymore!

So this week has been HE double toothpicks! Monday night I have to get ready for parent teacher conferences. Tuesday and Wednesday conferences until 8 p.m. Thursday hair appointments and a single adult activity (My Stake calling you know). Today I have a get together with my friends from high school (This and the hair are the highlights of my week) Tomorrow another singles activity from 7:30 a.m. until 3p.m. Then home until 6 for a ward progressive dinner. After that I am on the list to clean the church at 9p.m. Up on Sunday to teach in Primary.Somewhere in the midst of all that I get to write lesson plans, teach full time, and be a full time masters student. At some point I have to find some time to do my homework. I feel bad because I am tired busy and stressed and the kids get the raw end of this deal. I haven't been able to spend very much time with them at all and even though we live in the same house I miss them!

I so have to get more organized.

Okay so I am having a tough time keeping up with everything. Between my class web site and my school and upcoming parent teacher conferences and facebook my blog keep getting skipped. Tommorrow I am having a make up day for my math class and will be talking about possibles bags with my home room.
I got some material and I need to figure out the easiest and best way to make them. Any ideas?????

WOW!

WOW it has been a coons age since I updated this. (Can you tell I am teaching about mountain men?!) Life has been so busy! I am heading for major burn out! Too many papers to grade, too much homework to do, too many meetings! It will all end before I die of this I am sure! I am so glad to get next Monday off of work! I am so going to sleep in! (okay well maybe I might need the day to catch up on everything around the house I have let slide)

Finally!!!!

It's a done deal. I got my licence from the state of Utah today! It's official, I can teach. It's a good thing I got this done three days before I start the Masters program.

Merry Christmas Everyone!

Wow Christmas Eve already! The kids want to open a gift tonight and I am stumped. Because of current financial situation I had help supplying Christmas gifts this year. My delema is that I have no idea what the kids are getting and what to give them tonight. I am just so greatful that we are blessed enought to have gifts and a home when others have less.

And since I don't update this often I will share that I found out last week that I passed the PLT test. I scored 173, a 160 score is passing. I am so glad that is over. And now since I am a crazy idiot I have enrolled to start my Masters program on January 10th. It is an acellerated program so I will be able to complete it by the second week of December 2009. Let the insanity continue!

The Final Count Down!

1 more night of school! Yipee! If I could still do them I would be doing cartwheels right now!

I took the PLT test on Saturday. If I pass this I am all done! If I didn't pass I have three years to get it right or no teaching for me. All I can say is I will be hopping mad at myself if I don't pass!

I feel like my load is getting lighter but the weight won't be lifted until I get the #%#@$%$%^@# test score!

Keep your fingers crossed for me, I will know in 4 to 5 weeks. (Nothing like dragging it out and creating olsers!)
