…and I’m back!

Yes, yes, I know you haven’t heard from me in a million years, but I am alive and well.  Instead of trying to catch you up on my life I’ll just start with the basics.  First, I put in my resignation for my job last week.  After this school year I will be moving to the Phoenix area to get my Master’s degree in School Education (which I already began taking online courses for).

Teaching is going good, been busy.  It is definitely a high maintenance group of kids.  I am also in charge of the after school Drama program still, but instead of just involving the 5th grade, it involves the 5th and 6th grade….over 80 students!!!  We are working on 4 plays right now to perform on the stage for the primary and elementary schools and a night performance for families.  It has been busy!  I am also volunteering with the middle school Track and Field team again, which started a couple weeks ago.

Right now I am on Spring Break and I have been in Utah the past couple days.  It has been WONDERFUL!  I am staying with my dear friend and old roommate, Amber (affectionately called Hamburguesa).  My wonderful (and one of the best) friend, Rex, picked me up from the airport on Saturday morning.  We have been having such a good time.  We’ve gone to breakfast (which is becoming a tradition for Rex and I), gone thrift store shopping for crazy green outfits, party gone to concerts, gone to crazy Wicked parties, gone hiking, had wonderful conversations, many adventures, and countless laughs.  I am going to be so so so sad to leave these friends tomorrow.  I also got to visit with Kiara for a bit.  I sure do love that girl.  The weather has been nuts!  Saturday it rained and snowed a lot!  Then today it was too warm to even wear a jacket!  Sigh…it’s been  the best trip.

Anyway, now you know what I have been up to…kind of.
