Spooky creepy crawlies

This week work was not to bad. I mainly spent time in the mornings with the two year old and afternoons with infants. This weekend has been fun and relaxing and tiring all in one. Friday I had a nice dinner with Trisha, and a relaxing night at home. Saturday I spent a majority of the day at the fair. It was Rachel, Ethan, Trisha, Me and Darrell. It was Darrell's birthday so we just hung out looked at exhibits, and ate food. We had Indian Fry Bread SO good! And we always try a deep friend something, and this year we had a deep fried Twinkies. We looked at the chocolate covered bugs and meal worm Carmel apple, but i couldn't get the courage to try them. I had a good time. My favorite part was when we were leaving. There was a thing were these zombie dancers were going to dance to Michael Jackson's Thriller song. We watched as they danced, and it will be apart of this HUGE group of people all dancing Thriller at the same time in one place. It was pretty danged cool to watch and be apart of. Sunday I went to see the primary kids program at my parents ward. It was awesome! They did really well, and the spirit was so strong. I love how strong the spirit can be when children present the words. I then came home and rested a bit. Then Trisha and I went to Arizona Broadway Theater to see My Way. They are awesome!! Have a great week!!

It's Fall

My week has been good all around. No major issues. We are low with only having 5 babies right now. So I'm back to going where they want me to in the mornings. Usually it's with the 2 year olds, and I love being able to spend time with them. I then usually am alone in the afternoons with the infants. I'm hoping we get a couple more babies. I did do a few tours so we hope maybe one more will start soon. My weekend has been pretty nice as well. I had time to relax and have me time, and I also had time with friends. Today is Sunday, and I am catching up on a few things before I get taken away to go with a couple friends. Hope your week is wonderful!

Weird week

This week all around was off for me. Monday I worked an 11 hour day ALONE the whole day. It wasn't horrible, but long and not something I want to do again for a bit. I also learned our cleaning company had been let go. So we all had to do their jobs on top of our own. So instead of a 30 minute extra amount of time that I usually have to do just to get my room closed down properly each week. I had to add another 30 minutes to do their stuff as well. It was a challenge to figure out what time to start so i could still get out on time, and it was quiet interesting. I had just gotten home, and was showered and about to have dinner. When I had to go BACK to work cause I the closing keys with me still. It was a challenged because it had began to rain, and the streets had started to flood. Tuesday I went into work a hour late to make up for the 2 hours of overtime I had acquired from Monday. I was in the infant room all day, and had help for a couple hours in the morning, but the afternoon was alone. It was a rainy stormy day, and the weather was completely unlike anything I had ever seen in my life. On my lunch break it was just barely raining , and in the ten minutes it took me to walk and get food and go back. It had become very windy, pouring rain and began to hail. We sat in the office at lunch and watched as the wind picked up and the hail turned into gumdrop sizes. We took pictures of the playground that looked like it had snow. We then watched as a tree branch slowly but surely came off a tree. Then in the 5 minutes that happened it stopped. It was like nothing had happened, but in the afternoon/evening time. Another storm made its way in, and the rain came. It was nice and cool, and I was able to have the babies at the window to see outside, and they LOVED the different weather. I started to do some cleaning and my boss came in to give me something when we heard this loud noise on the roof. At first we thought it was one of the kids kicking the wall in the next class. It happened again, and I turned to my boss to ask her to tell them to stop. When it came more and more, and we looked out the window, and there was GOLF ball sized hail falling. It was amazing we stood with the babies at the window in amazement. It lasted about 5 minutes, and then was just rain. We were just amazed never had either of us seen that in our life. After about 30-40 minutes the rain let up, and I eventually was allowed to go home. It was quiet a trail as the free way was like a parking lot, and the access road was closed and every side road was like a river. I was never so glad to be home in my entire life as I was that night. I listened to stories of storm damage, and realized how blessed I am. My home, work, and car were undamaged by the storm. Wednesday I was alone in the infant room all day. It was quiet hard for me as I had been alone mostly for two days prior. I got home and was watching the news to learn about tornado that hit Munds Parks and Bellemont (located near Flagstaff). It was amazing to hear that it had happened as tornado are not anything we have here in Arizona. Thursday I went into work a hour late again trying to make up for all the overtime I still had. I had a half way normal day the weather was BEAUTIFUL. No storms the sunshine was great, and I pondered had Autumn really finally come to the desert. Friday I again went in a hour late in order to cover the overtime. At my place of employment they try not to pay overtime. I had a good day, and came home to enjoy a relaxing evening alone. Saturday I went to lunch with Rachel and she got a pedicure. I came home and had some alone time and relaxed. Then Rachel and Jonathan and I went out to dinner. It was a nice enjoyable time with them. They are great friends, and I am glad they are in my life. Today is Sunday, and I had planned to go to church. However, I got home last night, and wasn't feeling well. I was up late not feeling well, and I finally got some rest and woke up to late to make it to church on time. I am still a little queasy this morning though. I hope it passes and is nothing to keep me from work. Until next week my friends keep smiling!

October already?

Monday and Tuesday I had late days. I was off late and in the infant room all day. Wednesday and Thursday I spend mornings going everywhere with infants in the afternoon. Thursday I had a wonderful family dinner. It was so fun to have everyone together, and to get to spend time with my nieces and nephews. Megan is 5 1/2 now and I loved being with her. Friday I was off work, and spent the day just having time to myself. It was relaxing and fun, and worth it. Saturday I spent most of the day hanging out with Trisha, and then later met up with Rachel, Jonathan, Ethan and Darrell. We had dinner and visited, and had a early night. Sunday I woke up did some house work. Then went out with Rachel and Jonathan we had fun getting me a the beginning of a Halloween costume, and then we had lunch. Then home to relax and rest as Monday I have a early day at work. Life is going great, and I am feeling good. I hope this week treats you all wonderfully!
