Meisha to the vet

Today I took Meisha in at 7AM to get spayed. I hate dropping the girls off for that. I worry all day about them, I know she is fine though. It was funny because as I was giving her to the girl to take to the back Meisha was acting up a little and I asked the girl if she wanted me to help her and she told me what I tell the parents at the preschool. It is best if you just go, sometimes they will do better once you are gone. I kind of giggled on the way out. I should have known better right? LOL!!
So for my class I have to spend time with an administrator. So this afternoon I am planning on spending some time with mine from the preschool. I need to get in a lot of hours with her this week if possible because she is going on a 2 week vacation. When she gets back, I will be in my last week of class. My homework is caught up, so tonight I plan to baby Meisha.
Josh had a good time camping. He lost two teeth. He still has a lot of baby teeth and this has been a problem with moving along with his braces. We already had 4 pulled last year, so hopefully the rest will come on out. Anyway, they went floating on the Current River in Alley Springs, near Eminence, MO. It is really pretty there. I haven't been in years because of college.
I called my dad yesterday for Father's Day and talked to him for a while. Karl and I went to church and they had a nice Father's Day service.
Well, I better get started. Have a nice day!!

blogger comments

It seems like for some people (me), my blogger id is not working to leave comments and is causing problems for others as well. If you read this and you have a blogger blog, do you have a different type of comments section? Many years ago before I had my wordpress blog I had a blogger blog and I had a different kind of comments box, but I do not remember what it was and I probably wouldn't remember how to install it now...LOL!! I was just wondering about alternatives. Since I posted this I have been visiting other blogs and it seems like if you set your comments to pop out they work better? I changed mine. They probably just know what they are doing and I don't...LOL!!!! It is worth a try.
Josh is leaving around noon today for his camping trip and I need to clean house. I did not get anything done yesterday except a discussion board for my class. I took a shower, but did not ever dry my hair until bedtime...it was still wet where I had it pulled back. I usually get lots of company when I do that. I was lucky yesterday and no one had to see me being lazy. I had a headache too though. I will use that as my excuse.
Well, when I was visiting blogs yesterday I saw Darylynn got a new puppy in November named Cooper. I then realized I was not very up to date on people even though I am active on facebook. So I thought I would share about Meisha. Well, we found a puppy in our driveway in december and kept her. I have posted pictures of her here and on facebook, so most of you have seen her. This is Meisha. She is getting her little girl surgery on monday. She is a big girl now. The little dogs like her. She is really laid back. Anyway, most of you have probably seen her. If you scroll down the page you can see other pictures of her probably, I post so often and all.
I do not know why I am so chatty today. Have a nice Friday!!

posting question??

Well my summer school class has started. It is an adminisration class, so not my wheelhouse, but the teacher is awesome, so it is ok. It is a 5 weeks class, so one week down 4 to go. Those classes go fast. I am going to need to do some text reading this weekend, write a paper, do a discussion board and some other stuff on blackboard. It will keep me busy, not to mention I am going to have to spend 15 hours with an administrator over the next 4 weeks.
Josh is going camping with his cousins this weekend, so I will have plenty of time for homework. I will be so glad when I am done with school and I can spend time with him. He has been so patient. He will probably not want anything to do with me once I am done, just watch. He is getting to be that age.
I was just at Andrea's blog...if you drop by Andrea, I tried to leave a message, but I couldn't. I am not sure why. If anyone is having trouble leaving comments here, let me know in the tagboard and I will see if I can figure it out.
I hope everyone is having a nice summer so far. I love summer, it is my favorite.

fingerprints

I took Josh to the orthodontist tuesday. I think they basically just did something with his wires and we left. I had to take him back yesterday because they left the wires a little long at the back and the wires were poking him. Anyway, I hope we are done with that for a few weeks.
Today I am headed to get my fingerprints ran through the FBI. I have to do this for teaching and I have to have this on file with the university. There is a lot of this little stuff I have to do every summer to be able to be in the classroom. It just take some time and money.
I got an e-mail from my summer class professor yesterday. The class sounds like it will be fast paced. I start that next week. It is only 5 weeks though and it will be over.

Here is a picture of Meisha taken last week. She is getting big. I do not think she will get much bigger, maybe just bigger around. She is really sweet and calm. This is the dog we found after Thanksgiving in our driveway. She is potty trained now, so I cleaned the carpets right after I got out of school.

May update

Well let's see, since last I wrote, I finished my spring classes and of course school is out at the preschool for summer. I got pretty stressed out at the end of the year. I was trying to get part of my student teaching waived and wasn't sure of it was going to happen, but in the end it did. I will student teach in the fall for 8 weeks and that will be done. I am student teaching in a second grade classroom, so that will be fun. I also wanted to finish up my last two classes this summer and that isn't going to happen. I am taking one class this summer and I will take one in the fall during student teaching. So, I wanted to be done in October, it will be December. I am so ready, I am going crazy.
Karl finally went back to work in May, but we got behind financially with him being off, so I am really not sure what is going on with our house hunt. I am least want to put our current house on the market soon. It isn't like houses are selling fast or anything. I think Karl's concern is that if we get another house and cannot sell our current house for a while we will have two house payments and I am going to be student teaching for 8 weeks which means no paycheck. Otherwise we could swing it. We will just see.
Josh did great in school. He made all A's and one 89%. He was so close. I am very proud of him.
I start my college class next week. It is only for 4-5 weeks, so that will be nice. I am planning on writing my lesson plans for while I will be gone in July.
Tomorrow I take Josh to the Orthodontist.

My March Madness

How is everyone doing? I am doing good. I am enjoying my classes this semester, they are lecture classes and not a ton of homework like last semester. It is nice to not be overwhelmed for a change.
I am also working on wrapping up my schooling. The plan is to take the last two classes over the summer and then student teach in the fall for 8 weeks and I will be done. I am waiting for one more signature and one 8 week block of student teaching will be waived for me because I already teach at a preschool. I plan to do my student teaching in primary grades (for me that is 1st-3rd). I have my provisional teaching certificate until then. It has been a long process, many of you have been with me the whole time. I am ready to be done. I hope to be about mid October.
The weather has been gorgeous here the past couple of weeks...in the 60's. I love that, I can take the kids out for recess at the preschool and they have so much fun.
Let's see, the house hunt. We have been looking at houses. Mostly trying to get an idea of what size of house we want, how big do we want the bedrooms, how much storage space do we need, etc. We were looking at moving to another town. Josh is not doing so well with that, and as silly as it seems, we will probably try to stay here. He is doing so good in school now, after a not so good last 2 years that he was in elementary school. I wanted to move him away then and now that he is back in school and doing good in middle school, I am glad we stayed. It all works out. God has a plan and He will show us the house He wants us to have when the time is right.
Well, I know I should post more often so when I do post it isn't so long, but I have a lot going on and when I come home, I just want to relax. I will have a life again in a few months, I am so excited!! 7 more months!! If I do not make it back, Happy St. Patrick's Day!!

February Freeze

Well, I have another snow day. I thought I would drop in and make a post. We did not get the "blizzard" they said we would thank-goodness. We are not used to that kind of weather here in Missouri. There were some places that got close to 20 inches around here, but we got about 6. Just 6 inches has paralyzed our town. It is cold now. It was -9 last night. So far the pipes haven't froze. Maybe the snow is keeping the wind out. Let's hope. We have a really old house.
Well, Karl went back to work today being out from the storm. It is so cold. The roads were really bad. They still may be, I am not getting out in it.
We have still been looking at houses. Not seriously though. I do not think we can seriously look at houses until I finish school in the fall. I will have no paycheck for 8 weeks when I am student teaching, so we will probably wait until then. The house I had talked about in my last post was super inexpensive. I guess if we found the right deal we could do it, but until then we just have fun looking.
We are missing a lot of school. I hope much of it is forgiven so we do not have to make all of it up. I do not enjoy being in school when it is nice out in the Spring.
Well, I will wrap this up. Enjoy the Superbowl!!
