Monday was quiet a day. I went to work to find out someone had stolen the copper pipe and we had no water. So I spent a hour and a half at the school helping get people to another school. I then went to that school to help only to be told to go home and call back at one. I thought of if I need I can go in at 2. I called and was told to come in at 3 because the director wanted to go home. I felt like saying you should stay and deal with it like any other director would. I said nothing and I went in and worked. It was so different from what I'm use to. It reminded me how blessed I am to be where I am. Moral is if you ever get a urge to steal some copper piping. DO NOT do it from a preschool.

Tuesday I got up to go to work only to be told to go home and come back at noon. So instead of keep doing this get up early got to work go home come back. I asked to just come in at noon all week which is two more days and I got the ok to do so. I spent the day in the infant room and got off super early. It was a nice day

Wednesday was nice I slept in for a change. I didn't have to go to work come home then go back. I just went in later and played with the babies all day. It is cold and rainy today and i loved it! I am in such a good mood despite the headache I have. I think it's from the weather or it's cause I've gone all week with no caffeine or soda not sure which, but I'm not backing down from this challenge.

Thursday It stormed all night long keeping most everyone up. The cold weather threw the whole state into a cold white state. It was raining and cold and yes it SNOWED. It was pretty intense. I woke up feeling really sick I was throwing up and had a major headache. I called and asked to go into work later. It was hard to work feeling sick, but I did it and I got to go home a few hours later. I then went to my parents to look for something then home to rest and relax.

Friday HAPPY NEW YEAR!! I had a fun relaxing day. Did some shopping, and then stayed home, and brought in the New Year from the safety of my own home with Trisha. We played games and had a good time!

Saturday Trisha and I went out and about we shopped and relaxed. Then we went to Rachel's where we did our friend gift exchange. It was a nice way to spend the evening with dinner and talking and fun times.

Sunday I woke with a slightly sore throat and hope I'm not getting sick. I'm resting and hoping it will go away.

HAPPY CHRISTMAS!

Monday we are low at work so much that I got home before 530 today. It was so nice to come home and relax

Tuesday I spent all day in the Infant room which was different for me. I am not use to a full day by myself. It was nice to have time to myself though. Got off about 530 again

Wednesday I went to work just to go home and then come back. With the holidays everyone is low. So I went back at noon and worked in the infant room, and got off again about 530. I did get to buy a bracelet. It has Micha's initials, two crosses and his favorite verse on it. The money went to Susie and I was touched. I learned it was from one of his students, and since he started selling them Sunday he's made over 1500$ and it's all going to Susie and her family

Thursday I went in to work only to be told I was suppose to come in at 12. My boss had NEVER said anything so I didn't know. So I went to the bank cleaned the house then went to work. Where I was kind of everywhere with the Infants. It was fun and I got to come home and relax and enjoy my evening.

Friday Christmas Eve. I spent the day just relaxing and enjoying my time off. I went to dinner at my parents. It was so nice I love being able to be with my family whenever I can. I was there as were Jared, Becky and Kaleb, 4 missionaries and my grandma and grandpa. We read Luke and we shared some Christmas Eve stories. It was nice to be there to talk about Christ, and feel the spirit.

Saturday was Christmas and it was so fun. I had breakfast and just enjoyed some friends. Then later went to be with my family. It was different this year we didn't do the usual gifts we had in the passed. It was white elephant gifts, food and money and it was so nice. It was really nice to see the season without the glamours. We had elders who danced, and there was music and laughing and fun. I loved it

Sunday I stayed home rested and just enjoying some serious ME time

It's looking alot like Christmas

Monday was a tough and emotional day at work. A fellow co worker passed away. He hasn't worked with the company for 2 years, but he still came by and said hello, and all the school age kids knew him. His wife was still working with us up to 6 months ago. So it was hard. His name was Micha and he was only 25 years old. He was driving home, and all we know is it looked like he was trying to exit the freeway spun out and hit a pole, and passed before anyone got there. His wife is Susie, and she is 24 years old. She is a cancer survivor, and seeing him and her having gone through so much to just have his life cut so short was truly more shock than anything. I know I will see Micha again, and I know he is well. It's harder for me to see so many trying to find their own way to cope. It makes me see how truly blessed I am to have the gospel and it's knowledge in my life. My day was not to bad considering.

Tuesday was not to bad I was here and there the day was over all not to bad. I can't say allot happened. Other than we at work talked more of Micha as more details became known. I again listened to many memories. It is nice to hear them, and it's good to know I can be a shoulder for those who need it to cry on. I'm so blessed and grateful I can be a help to anyone at this time.

Wednesday was not to bad. I went kind of everywhere this morning before ending up with the older two year olds. It was fun to be with them. I love my job I can get hugs and stuff at random without it being weird. It's great, and it's like the kids know when your not feeling so great. They do or say something to make you feel better. I was having a hard day just not feeling well, and with all the emotions going around it was a little more stressful than usual for me. I just had random kids hugging me today. It's things like this that remind me why I love what I do.

Thursday was an overall good day. Some emotional moments, but got through them. It was mainly with my coworkers. I know it's hard for them so I am ok with listening. I wasn't feeling to great today so I was kind of glad to just be ears today.

Friday was a good day over all. My back was hurting allot, and I don't know why. I came home and went to dinner with Trisha. We then decided it would be fun to drive around and look at Christmas lights. As we were we noticed someone was driving behind us in one area. I was like ok maybe they are looking at lights as well. Then I thought maybe they live in the area. So I told Trisha to turn down a street where the houses were not as lit with lights. Well this person went the same way. I asked her if she had noticed that car behind us. She said yes. I said well try going a few different ways and see what happens. We spend up a little and the car did too, and followed our turns. I then said don't put your blinker on, and she did she sped up a little more. Whomever this was spend up and was keeping up with our turns. I asked if they were still following. She said yes. I said ok don't use a blinker and head toward a main busy street. So we did and the corner right before the main busy street the person stopped and we went on our way. I said if they had followed us we would of stayed on a busy main street where lots of people are and call 911 and get to a well let busy area. She agreed, but they stopped. I said good cause usually getting to a busy street helps. I don't know what that person wanted or would of done, but I am sure glad I felt inspired enough to help Trisha stay calm and get away from them. Thank you for the blessings Heavenly Father!!

Saturday was so busy I didn't even know the day was over till it was over. I started with a breakfast then got my nails done then lunch and some shopping then another shopping trip and dinner then went to temple lights and food it was so much fun to be out and about. Christmas is nearly here and I am feeling ready.

Sunday I went to church it was beautiful full of touching spirit. The true meaning of Christmas touched my heart and soul. I then came home and caught up on some stuff before I went to see my brother in the Messiah.

Birthday

Monday was not that bad of a day. I think I have a main handle on my cold. I just have a cough that I can handle. The majority of it is gone or so it seems. I think the extra rest and relaxing has helped allot. I had a pretty uneventful day. Other than my bosses were on top of being in ratio BAD today. I think they honestly got in BIG trouble for it. Because there was allot of licencing, state, president of the corporations, and our ops manager talking to staff and the bosses. then today they were really on it so I think that was the issue. I got to spend time with the two year old like usual and some time in kindergarten which was different. Over all good day though.

Tuesday was another not to bad day. I'm feeling fairly well doing the same thing been in the twos then kindergarten then infants. It's not so bad and life is going pretty nice right now.

Wednesday was weird I was in infants in the morning then in a few rooms then in infants again. It was weird day all around

Thursday I was in the two year old rooms and it was not to bad and infants like normal. I was off super early thought due to babies going home early. It was nice to come home early and get some me time in. I had a chance to go over my Christmas stuff and see what I need to still get, but I think I am mainly done.

Friday was a weird day I was everywhere I had no real one place to be in the morning. I had a nice surprise when Rachel randomly showed up and had lunch with me. I was in the infants as usual in the afternoon. I had someone try to get to my face book account from Brazil. It was weird and things are fixed now. I then went to dinner with Trisha and did a little Christmas shopping.


Saturday I spent the morning just relaxing doing some house work and getting some stuff caught up. After that I went with Trisha to finish up some Christmas shopping. We then met with Rachel, Jonathan and Ethan for Trisha's birthday. We went to dinner and had cake and talked. It was a fun night. It's also Kyle's birthday he turned 3 today! HAPPY BIRTHDAY KYLE!!

Today is Sunday and I am jut relaxing doing NOTHING but sitting with my feet up. I think I hurt my knee yesterday so I'm resting so I can face this week

Tree up

Monday I was still fighting my cold so being energetic and with it was very difficult. I was moved around between the two year old and three year old. Then in the afternoon I was in the infant room. I got off at a later time, but closer to on time. I didn't care though cause it was a VERY COLD day for me. I usually can handle the cold weather, but with this cold I am a big baby.

Tuesday I was in the infant room ALL day it was nice to be in there all day and to actually get some things DONE. Like there is boards we have to get decorated, and we can't when we are alone. It's annoying to get the art work done and never up so to see it start to get up was nice. I am feeling somewhat better. I accidentally slept in for me, but I needed it. I just have a nasty cough now, and that's OK with me. I am just glad to get better.

Wednesday I was kind of a bit of everywhere then I was in the older two year old room and younger three year old room. It was NUTS I had a 2 1/2 year old who is HUGE like he is nearly up to my chest. He had a HUGE fit threw chairs all around the room, and i couldn't get him to calm down. I had a special needs boy who is SO cute and SO fun to work with. He was all in a uproar because of this kid. So I had to work with him one on one to calm him down. By this point every book and puzzle we have in the room is thrown all over the room. Every child is throwing toys and I'm trying to control them all while my assistant did nothing. It was ever a challenge, and I was so glad to leave that room today. My afternoon was pretty laid back and I was so tired. I was with the infants and it was so nice to cuddle some of those little ones and enjoy their sweet spirits after a trying morning. I got off on time and was so glad for that as well.

Thursday I was in the younger twos and preschool rooms today. It wasn't to bad of a day. Infants was lovely as well. Over all the day was easy and nice. I guess to make up for all yesterdays craziness.

Friday wasn't to horrible. I was mainly in the two year old class that I enjoy being in. I was in infants after that. The day was pretty easy for the most part aside from the usual two year old over active Friday behavior. I came home to relax and rest as I had a headache. I'm hoping it will pass and I'll be back to mainly normal. Other than a cough I'm hoping the worst of the cold is over.

Saturday I had a relaxing at home morning. I just kind of vegged out and let my body rest. After that Trisha and I had lunch and hung out doing some of her Christmas shopping, and then home to rest and relax. Trying to get fully healed before the holidays really start up.

Sunday I stayed home and got myself rested up. I am trying to kick this cold, but it's not working. I just have a yucky cough. I did put up a tree this year for Christmas so I got that going for me. Untill next week keep smiling!

Happy Thankgiving

Monday I was in the young two's and then infants in the afternoon. I got off early, and enjoyed some ME time.

Tuesday I was around in the older threes in the morning and kind of a few other little places. Infants in the afternoon and off SUPER early. We had the regional manager who was the lady that hired me in today. She wanted to talk to 'everyone' and yet I was never spoken to. I hope that enough people said enough stuff to get things sorted out with everyone at work. As it's become quiet a drama filled work enviorment among the adults. I for one am tired of it, and hope that this will result in good things.


Wednesday I spent the morning bouncing around for about a hour then I was in the older three's. It wasn't a bad day, but the kids are excited, and so it was a challenge in that regard. I did hurt my hand, and can feel it still hurting. I was trying to wrangle the kids and I bumped it on something. What i still don't know, but it hurt there's barely a mark, but i must of hit a nerve because I feel pain all down my arm. Not my idea of fun, but it's not stopping me from plugging along. I was in the preschool rook with the 4-5 year old for a bit, and that was interesting. Then I got to go be with the infants. Were the kids all went home so early I was off before 530. So I came home and rested and did a few things. Enjoyed a nice quiet evening to myself.

Thursday it's Thanksgiving and I am truly grateful for all the blessings I have in my life. I enjoyed a day recalling all my blessings and memories. It was beautiful.

Friday I was home most of the day just enjoying time to myself, and catching up on house stuff. I then went out stopped by work to say hi to the kids, and get something. Went home and then out to dinner with Trisha, Jonathan and Rachel. Rachel and I then did a little shopping, and then we all went home. It was a fun and relaxing day

Saturday I woke with a cold runny nose and sore throat. Fuzzy headed all day long because of it, but i went with Rachel to a movie and lunch then Trisha and I did some shopping had dinner and then home. It was a relaxed day with allot accomplished.

Today is Sunday and I am staying home nursing my cold. I got more sleep last night which was one point in MY favor. I'm staying warm lots of vitamins and fluid and hopefully this will pass.

Turkey

Monday I was in the two year old room all morning. I love that room and those kids. I taught them a thanksgiving song. I was in infants all afternoon and off work early

Tuesday I was in three year old all morning. They are a bit of a challenge and it's just the amount of kids not the kids themselves. Infants in afternoon off early.

Wednesday I was in preschool room. Those kids are so different, but allot of fun. They make me smile we had ALLOT of them though. State had come so things were really crazy and breaks were late. I got in the infant room late. we had a late fire drill too. It was so crazy. I got off early, but still what a day

Thursday I was everywhere. It was super crazy. We had Thanksgiving feast, Fire Marshall, First things First coach AND tricycles delivered all at one time. It was INSANE, and I am glad it's over. My afternoon was infants as usual and i got off early.

Friday I was in the younger twos most of the day. It was fun I love their excitement for life. I didn't even get into the infant room until much later than usual. It was not a bad day over all things were good, and I even got off work earlier than normal. I am enjoying the night home alone. It's a peaceful quiet night and day all around.


Saturday I had HAGS breakfast it was allot of fun, and ALLOT more people than normal. I suspect it was cause of the holidays. After that I went to see Harry Potter with Trisha. It was a good movie that's all I'll say about it. After that we went to lunch, and then just hung out at various malls and price compared some stuff at some stores. It was a relaxing laid back day, and we came home early. Just relaxed, and got some cleaning done. What a productive lovely day.

Sunday is today, and it's peaceful, and beautiful. I am relaxing and enjoying the beautiful weather and peace I find this day. Until next time. Take care!
