I hate being sick!

You have all probably been wondering what in the world happened to me again. Well, to say the least, I have been sick. ugh!!!!!!! I hate being sick period in any shape or form. This time it has been a runny nose, congestion, coughing and headache. It set in early last week and by the weekend Scott and I both had in and were in competition to see who could use the most tissues! I guess 3 boxes in 2 days isn't that bad? Thankfully we are getting better little by little. :)

Since my last post, I have got some really wonderful news about school. On Sunday night, I got a phone call from P (the substitute caller for one of my favorite school districts) to schedule me for some more days. An hour or so later P called me back and said that she had a change in plans for me. No big deal, I'm flexible. One of the kindergarten teachers, J, was going on maternity leave early. J was one of the teachers that requested me all of the time and also told me that she wanted me for the last week in school because she loves the way I keep things neat and the wonderful job that I do with the children. It seems that J, who is 33 weeks pregnant, was in the hospital all last weekend and was not able to keep her blood pressure in control, even on meds. So, the doctor put her on bed rest and I am now taking her place in the classroom! Let me tell you I am so excited!!!!!!! It has been two great days with the children, I absolutely love being in their classroom. :) I know the rest of the school year is going to go by quickly and so I am trying to enjoy it as much as I can! :) Thanks be to God. I have prayed for answers as to what I needed to do and for now I know that I am right where I should be. Just like I am sure that I will be right where I need to be in the weeks to come as the new school year starts. Do I stay home and do in home day care, start the preschool at church, still substitute teach, or maybe even get a full time job? Just as God has answered my prayers now, I know he will be answering them in the weeks to come as to what my next focus should be.

Well my friends, I just wanted to post and let you know what has been happening around our house. I hope all of you are going to be able to enjoy the beautiful weather we have coming this weekend. Even as sick as I was last Saturday and Sunday, I still got out and raked leaves, picked up sticks and mowed the yard. It felt really good to be in the sunshine. :) I am so looking forward to more sunshine and almost 80 degrees this Saturday and Sunday. :)

I promise that I will be catching up on all of your blogs in the next day or so. I have a great picture that I am looking forward to sharing with you of a beautiful gift that I got from a pass it forward blogger. :) Have a great hump day everyone!!!!!!! Keeping my fingers crossed that I get to see 2 pink lines the same darkness this week on my ovulation predictor again.

Hugs and blessings,
