Going back to school

I have decided to go back to school. I applied for the asst. secretary job at Nichols elementary, and was called for an interview, which my good, good friend and secretary D.E. there told me I would have gotten!!:( ---but with further thinking I decided to go back to school. I have to pass the wonderfully stupid MATH test that I have taken TOO MANY times to count.

*Actually I have taken the PPST math three times- I missed it by two points, then one point twice. That test is $85 a pop. They wouldn't pass me through because of the "C" I had in college algebra. Even though I had a "B" in my other math 304 for teaching.
*I had taken the C-base math test three times(I hate that test)! at $40 then $28 & $28.

We ordered a PPST book w/cd off of Amazon so I can crash study for this big event! I just want to get it over with and passed so I can go on with my life!
I plan on taking it sometime during the second week of July-Happy Birthday to me!
I talked to one of my advisors, which I say one of mine because my real advisor doesn't advise me to do anything--she usually doesn't know anything, so I go to my "other" advisor that gave me my scholarship. I already have my minor in ESOL. She told me that I can still be on scholarship if I get in this Fall for school.

I have one semester of 13hrs at PSU of my restricted courses and then a semester of student teaching. YAY! I just want to hurry and get finished! If all goes well I will graduate in the Spring of 2007!

I am getting excited! I hope it all goes ok. I have been through too much this past year and need to get moving again.

5.5 more

Puppy I fostered a couple of weeks ago. He was so sweet! I wanted to keep him. so bad. He was adopted on our adoption day though.

Well, I know you all are just waiting on the edge of your seats to see what I weighed at the doctor today. Ya, right.
I only lost 5 1/2 lbs this month. That is 33.5 pounds in three months. The dr that was there today told me to go to the store and pick up 3-10lb bags of potatoes and one small bag--and that would be just about what I had lost. So of course while at Walmart tonight Brady and I did just that. That ended up to be quite a bit!!! I have a long ways to go though.

Brady mowed today and I weed eated, and our doggy got a much needed bath. She was thrilled. (insert sarcasm here) We of course have to give it to her outside since she is very LARGE. She smells and looks so much better.

Friday evening we watched Karaoke downtown and Brady rode some rides at the carnival. Saturday morning bright and early at 7am I helped set up our AWS booth at the "Dog Days" event. I signed dogs up for the dog show and the weinie dog races--sponsored by Buffalo Run Casino. I then helped judge the dog show, which next year I probably won't be judging so maybe our dog will be able to be in it. Everything was over by noon and then my mom and I blew up 70 latex balloons for a birthday party. Halie gets us to do her party every year. We then went and ate chinese (my husband was at home sleeping this entire time, because he works nights and he always tells Brady and I to go ahead and eat if we want, so this time we did). His parents then invite us over for steak. He eats and we get home around 9:30pm. Talk about a full day!

The Oh channel

Welp here I am at 1:48am watching the Oh channel. They are doing liposuction. It hurts just watching the fat being sucked up the tube. ewwie! How do they not puncture something important while their jabbing that canula thing in there??
I'm thinking if I keep losing weight I will need a serious tummy tuck. And yes, I have watched one of those done on the Discovery health channel. I am big into watching these painful things. And yes, it does look very gross when they cut your stomach off and then sew it back together. ewwie!

I went to see Brady at church camp today---after getting lost for about an hour and then finally getting to "Alba" Missouri. Why in the world would they put the town there, I have no idea. Now I can drive right to it, that is after driving 10 miles in the complete opposite direction, around it, in front of it, I almost gave up. Brady got upset and wanted to come home. This is the first time for him away from home where he can't call me. He has been away before but could call me anytime. 2 kids had already gone home this week because they were homesick. I think it would have been different if he had a close friend that had gone with him, but he is better friends with the girls at our church, and there isn't too many boys that are in his age group so he is friends with the boys a year younger--that didn't get to go. He will be back on Friday morning--probably very mad at me. I felt like a bad mom, but he will be ok. .................I hope!!

Brady's at camp!

Brady went to camp this past Sunday. It has been so strange with him not at home. I will be going up there today to see him for church service this evening, and he will be coming back on Friday morning!! Yay!

I have the night off!

What to do???------- Brady is at his Oma's house for the night and Steve goes to work. OhMY.
I will probably end up cleaning.
And then watch a movie.

I haven't posted in awhile so here goes--

*Brady has started swimming lessons this week, I wanted him to be all up to date on everything before he goes off to church camp in a few weeks.

*VBS starts next week.

*I made the most delicious low carb soup this evening. Steve won't eat it because it is cream soup though. It was wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!

*Tony hurt his shoulder really bad a couple of weeks ago while racing. He then tried to race the next day and had a flat, hit the wall and was out of the race.
This last Sunday we went to a bowling tournament and didn't get to watch, but he only did about 37 laps and then had Ricky Rudd drive for him. Hope he gets better fast!!! They said he broke his shoulder blade during the race he got hurt in and they can't take pain killers or anything because it will interfere with racing. He is still 5th in points going down from 4th. He'll be back up there!

Thats about all of my excitement for the time being.
