Busy week this week--I am social chair of my elementary. In charge of flowers/etc for bdays, babies, funerals, etc. This week I have to plan a catered breakfast for 40 associates and buy gifts for 10 support staff.
Also I am chair of Nathan's classes entry into the silent auction for their PTA Carnival Friday. Gotta put that all together still. We are doing "Adventures in Art" so we got a cute Melissa & Doug Easel, two family passes to the Children's Museum, and various art supplies. Now I have to figure out how to arrange it so it looks good!
Also this is my week to test all my ELL kids at school. Kind of like the state, fill in the bubble, tests, but just gauging their English skills. I am a nerd because assessments are my favorite thing to do!
Not much new in my world, kids and I spent the evening outside, we practiced hitting some balls out in the backyard (my yard backs up to an empty, grass-filled lot). I drove a handfull of balls, all went straight but one, but they only went 60-80 yards...it was weird using plastic balls but I am not wasting real balls if I can't find them in the neighbor's lot! (We did find 9 of the 12) Sydney cracked me up bc she said she could sure bat better at the real golf court. Nathan has a set of Hagen youth clubs so he was practicing with a real driver for the first time.
OK gotta to work!
Oh yeah, Dan stopped by last night to drop off Nathan's movie so I can get it back to Netflix--he took it to Dan's over the weekend. Sydney had just gotten a toy cell phone from a neigbhor girl earlier in the evening.
She says, "Daddy, I have been calling you on my phone to tell you I want you to live with Mommy again. I want you to move home and live with Mommy"...Dan just said "I know..."
Oh and my MIL called last night to see what was up Friday with the Carnival and who was watching the kids if needed. I told her that I had my parents doing it bc I was going to a bday party after. I couldn't leave it at that, I told her who it was for and that his wife invited me (even though GG invited me, I didn't want to share that with her)...Well lo and behold said wife works with MIL and I didn't know it! Hope she doesn't mention it to her. Granted it really isn't her business anyway...
