Give Thanks

It's hard to transition from such a structured and busy schedule at school to a completely open summer where my time is not nearly as in demand.

Today, however, was relatively more productive compared to those previous. Grandma, KK, and I went out to breakfast and ran some errands around town for mom (including a splurge stop at "Give Thanks" bakery downtown). Mom gave me a stack of books to return to the public library and I might have inadvertently returned one of Tim's books that belongs to the school library. Yikes! So now we're hoping it shows up within the next few days.

I cleaned out my dresser and closet today and have things marked for a garage sale tomorrow (Kirstin is excited about that one). One step closer to having my life organized again. It's a nice feeling.

After a tasty dinner of baked spaghetti (it was actually leftover night, but you would've never known), we settled down to the Red Wings and Pistons games (and another job application). Both teams lost. :( But we did have our scrumptious mousse and tiramisu with hazelnut coffee during an intermission, which was far better than I expected. Thus, I can't really complain about the evening as a whole. :)

And now I sit here wondering how much I want to pursue the school corporation that called me this morning. It's an offer for an interview at a high school with a 79.9% graduation rate for a graduating class of 55.

Tomorrow Kirstin learns what a fartlek is. Maybe I'll learn where I'm supposed to teach.

Or maybe I'll learn patience and trust.... yup, that's probably it... :)
