Happy New Year my friend and to all my dbers out there.
All has been quite on the MTN front for which I am grateful.
Rang in the New Year with my friends (SA3!) and had a great time. What a wonderful way to kick off 2008!
I am off for a few weeks from teaching which has been nice. My D10 has been sick for a week which has been rough, though. Bad headcold that landed her in the ER last Friday due to some kind of asthma attack that had never occurred before. She is fine, now, and I believe that she had a bad sinus infection. Having a real xmas tree hasn't helped, either and I am tackling that, today.The poor thing..She is a real trooper and is back in school but I know she was scared out of her mind..The doc gave her an inhaler and she is on antibiotics so she is on the mend.
As for me, XH has been busy doing his thing (he iceboats) which is great. He was always so happy in the winter. He loves to build boats and sail them which is fun for my S13, too. So, for now, the focus is off the dysfunction and drama and on his sport..phew..
New Guy has been busy winding down his season of landscaping. He has been a HUGE help around here fixing broken things, etc. It has been terrific.
As for me, I am have been busy getting D on the mend and starting my tutoring business. I have been designing brochures and trying to find office space. I will be having group tutoring as well as one on one. It has been fun coming up with strategies to market my new business and designing things. My next step is to get organized with all my materials and have them in my fiile cabinet categorized by grade/age. My main focus will be study skills and organizational strategies for kids. I have a good feel for this and am really excited. So far, the feedback has been wonderful!
Well, off to go get tree out of here. I want the house cleaned up before D comes home. Then, off to tutoring.
