Summer reading has come to a close in my book, although we are still collecting slips and handing out prizes till August 2. Oh well. The Big stuff is over and we are liking the fact that we can recollect our thoughts and go through the department and clean up and get it ready for Fall. I am not sure how Megan and Amber feel about Summer Reading Ending, but I am HAPPY!
I am trying hard to work on a proposal for a conference a co-worker and I want to attend and present at in May 2009. I know planning way ahead but they need to be in by August 15th. I am all ready, just waiting on my proof readers to give the OK to submit!
Miss Marianne is coming home tonight from New Hampshire and will be home till August 9th. She is staying with Miss Lauren who had a knee replacement on Monday and seems to be doing well when I talked to her last evening. Please keep her in your prayers.
Like all teachers, I am starting to look ahead and plan some things. I know that I will be student teaching, but all in all I will have charge of the classroom 4 weeks into the semester and that will last for about 9 to 10 weeks till I start to be an assistant to the head teacher. I have lots of ideas and have contacted my teacher and the principal already to let them know my start date and all the necessary information needed. Granted, in between planning school lessons I will also be working and trying to keep house chores and things up as well. I look at it this way, it's only 14 weeks and then I might have a life, till I find that right teaching job.
Not much else is happening. Looking forward to a nice weekend and to making some anniversary cards for some friends that ordered them from me. Of course mom and grandma will be there in toe helping to design and assemble them. I am also enjoying book series that is called Yada Yada Prayer Group, by Neta Jackson. It is a great series about a group of ladies that met at a Women's conference and have developed this prayer group, attend each other churches, hold prayer meetings and gathering for their families at their homes and so much more. The series is really good and brings to perspective how lucky we are to have safe neighborhoods, happy families, and healthy families. Looking for a good book to read....check it out. Book 1 is great but, book 2 is better yet. I personally can't wait to get through all 6 of them....sometime soon.

Sorry that there are no kidisms....have not heard much this week or last. Hopefully I will get some. I will have to have Miss Amber and Miss Megan listen in for some so I can post them next time.
Until then....

Lynne,
There are 7 Yada Yada books. And you are welcome that I introduced you to them. : p
. . . and I'm delighted that you're enjoying the journey with the Yada Yada sisters! Thanks so much for recommending them to your friends. And just to let you know--I am now writing a NEW series that is a spin-off of Yada Yada, especially following bk 7 of the original series (grin). The series will be called The Yada Yada House of Hope, and the first book (title: "Where Do I Go?") will be out in early December '08!
