Moving and school

Painting is done. Whoooo! Lots of hard work but it looks good and the kids are happy with their rooms.

Now of course comes the moving. Need to quickly pack up stuff in room. Kids are more or less packed up. The rest of it is in storage. Going to be lots of work but we have help and it will all be good. It will be great to get in there and get settled.

School starts for me next week. Pricing my books to spend the least amount of money as possible. Looking forward to these classes. I think they will be interesting. Taking the Archaeology of Ancient Egypt and Topics in English Literature: Fantasy Literature and the Reimagined World. Lots of reading but excited none the less.

Kids started school yesterday. Katlyn is super stoked with her teacher. She had prayed for this teacher. This teacher was part of Girls on the Run last year and Katlyn really likes her. Plus some of her buddies are in there as well. Keep that teacher in your prayers. :D Katlyn has also started the school year with a new style. She is not a fan of the uniform policy. Nothing against different colored accessories so that is what she is doing. Various color tights, knee socks, necklaces, bracelets, etc.

Joseph like his teacher. Says there is no helper in there. Probably not a good thing to not have two adults in a kindergarten class. Brand new teacher who is fresh out of school I think. Very soft spoken and didn't have a lot to say at open house or when I talked to her on the first day. Hope that changes or the kids and parents will eat her alive. Time will tell.

Chess club is looking good. Between returning players and new siblings only 10 spots open. Over 50 kids said they were interested in playing and being in those 10 slots. Out of those so far 17(I think) have already responded to emails double checking their interest. Waiting list for sure this year it would seem. Awesome to see that many kids want to play.

Maybe after we get settled I can finally get into some kind of exercise or running routine. Would love to do more 5K's.

Okay starting to ramble now. Stick a fork in me I am done. :D Later gators.
