Beautiful Day
Oh I love Fridays!!!!!!!!!! For one I have the day off and secondly the kids go to school. That leaves the rest of the day for me, Lost, and Jungle Java. We put a desk in our master bedroom and I have turned it into my office. I have my little desk in my bay window cubby so I can look out. I have one GREAT view from my office. When I look up I see beautiful Egrets drying their wings on the side of the lake on hole 7. Sometimes I see some cute little duck butts wailing around as they try to get to something at the bottom of the lake. Oh and then I get back to work. The view is a big distraction. I might have to draw the blinds soon before I notice that it is sunny and 70 and I will want to skip out on my JJ duties.
I went to my first Pampered Chef party last night. I know hard to believe. I love cooking so much but any one I knew that did Pampered Chef stopped doing it when I met them. It w as lots of fun and I bought a few pieces. I got to meet some other people from the neighborhood too. Shannon of course went and was a big help as she had sold Pampered Chef before and this was Katie’s first time. I also met a ballerina from the Austin Ballet. Oh and I also met 3 babysitters yesterday. Two girls I caught getting off the high school bus in the neighborhood. and one girl from last night. I will have to have these girls come over and meet the boys. Noah already liked the older girls from the bus stop.
Wow so we made our reservations to come back to Michigan for our JJ training. We will be back April 21-May8th. This is nice as it is also at Cooper’s birthday so we can have a big family get together. I know Gregg and Michelle wanted to have a big get together for all the listeners also when we come back. He was thinking one West side and one East side. Perhaps Novi the 26th and Royal Oakish the 3rd. If you have any ideas of places of cities by all means respond here or email gregg. After all we want the party to be where you will want to come(ps. I love Duggan’s in RO)
So we should get our final MEP plans back by Monday and off to the Permit process then. In worker time I am thinking we will start construction March 12th ish(2 1/2 weeks). Which puts us finishing June 1-15th window. Noah’s bday is the 12 so I am hoping we can have a party for him on the 14th. In the mean time there is so much to do so I should really get off this computer and get working. I will post a new Lost blog entry later.
Oh and I am also going to a meeting tonight about a charter school opening here in Round Rock that will have the IB program. Is there anyone here from Michigan who goes to Country Day, Cranbrook, Andover, IA or even Lone Pine Elementary? How about anyone involved in it in Round Rock at Westwood, Grisham, Anderson Mill. I know nothing but good things about the program in Michigan so I am very excited about this meeting. It is all the buzz in the school that I am tutoring in.
OH and a bigggggggggg HUG to Curly. I saw on Carol’s Blog that Colin took a header into a wall/basketball pole. Hey but blue stitches are really cool and you have to love that the ER waiting time is only 7 minutes here! Take care sweetie!!
a lot
Is working part time really focusing on teaching? Who’s the h8er?
Hi Nicole. We are in the Andover district. Great schools here in BH. But, boy do we pay for them. We’ve had experience with LHS and Interlochen as well. Let me know if you need to know anything about them. I’d be glad to help out.
HI Deb,
How old are your kids? I’m looking for info on the IB program at Andover. I was wondering if the whole school is IB or is it just a program there.
Jay,
Don’t mind Shannon. I allow her posts as I find them most amusing. I hope you enjoy them too.
Hi Nicole. IB program is offered at Andover…not the entire school though. I believe International Academy is the only high school to have it for all students. Our kids went to Way which is NCA accredited, BHMS and Interlochen. So, we don’t have hands on beyond middle school with the program. Interlochen gave a much world encompassing education too. Hopes this helps.
Thank you it does help.
