Ventings

I tried posting some of Arik's fire pics but for some reason they wouldn't upload but I will try again later. Arik was on his fire for 12 days. He was home for 8 days and this morning went on another fire for another two weeks. He was home long enough to put together my dryer, help me hang our pics and kill all the weeds that had overtaken the house. But now he is gone again.

Today I reported to school. When I got there I found out that they ordered only one classroom st of books for both myself and the reading teacher. We have to use a cart to move them to each of our classes. Then the teacher editions have not yet arrived, the student workbooks are also missing and the desk they ordered for my classroom still has not come. This is a lot of stress for a first year teacher. I am doing what I can. Another frustrating thing. They gave me a book during the summer that they said would be used this year. I have been looking over it and trying to come up with some ideas. Today I learned that they ordered different books and all that I looked at was a waste. So much fun!!!! NOT!

I finally got Breaking Dawn and was able to read it. I was a skeptic in the beginning of the whole series but after reading them I am impressed and it was written well.

Down point. The 6th Harry Potter has been postponed until next July. They wanted to wait until the highest movie point but come on it is Harry Potter everyone is going to be going to it anyways why hold out? I have been getting mixed dates for the Twlight movie release now. I have seen the 12/12 release and since Harry was delayed I have seen a 11/21 date so which is it???

Luckily we still have HSM3 to look forward to. I am excited to take Brookelyn to it because she hasn't seen a movie in a theatre yet. We have taken her to the drive in but not the theatre. She loves seeing the previews and is excited for it also.

Kira is walking everywhere. She just took off. Brookelyn started walking while she and I were in Texas so Arik didn't see her take her first steps. This time Arik was on a fire and he didn't get to see Kira take her first steps. But he thought it was so cool when she walked to him when he got home.

The Olypmics are awesome. I just love watching them. Way to go, Micheal Phleps!! I just enjoy the spirit of it and I love cheering on the USA!!! Everything that Brookelyn watches she says, "I want to do that!" "Can I do that mom?" It is great seeing her getting into it. I just love it!
