    • Met this totally awesome dude named Kevin.  I want to crack his cranium and lick his brains!

  • Tomorrow I leave for Houston.  I have to attend training there for the week.   A week without my girls...kind of dreading that.  I feel heartbroken already.  I keep telling myself all the curriculum stuff I can get done while I'm away, but I truly wonder how much of it I will do.  There are a ton of things to be done in the house before I leave.  Such as laying out a weeks worth of outfits for the hubby so my kids are dressed like hobos.  I'm worried as to what I will come home to.  He's not great with hair...so I may come home and find Bob Marley's kids running around here.  The horror.  Ok..more stuff to take care of, including packing!

  • The Mexican finds new employment...

    In the year long journey that has been my life with Bubba on the job hunt, I have had a few scares, for example, Indiana.  Bleck.   A few hopes, like Pittsburgh.  I must admit I was truly disappointed on that one.  And quite a few WTF moments with my man.  All ended in rather anticlimactic rejections.

    Last Friday Miguel was offered a job...40 minutes up the road...in Waco. 

    Not the kind of move he was hoping to make but I did an Irish jig.   I know that we will be here at least another four years...enough to get Alyssia through high school, then we can move wherever.   It is a slight pay cut, BUT we have been told that a promotion/raise would be imminent within the next year.  Fingers crossed.

    So, thus ends (hopefully) the drama on employment in my house for awhile.

    He told his boss' today.  They were surprised and disappointed...especially one in particular.  But for me, it means regular work days and hours.  I get my husband back, my family gets their father back, and we can finally start living normal again.

    Thank you! I'm working on it. Life hasn't been too funny lately...just deathly, deadly serious. Oh...here is something I heard in the hallway last week. One of students touched one of the boys in the hall...he looked up and said, "Stop it or I'm going to charge you with mandatory rape!" I about
