This Week

this week has been a busy one for me.  we have parent teacher conferences next week, so ive been working frantically to get all my grades done and ready.  yesterday was a teacher plan day, but because the program that we input grades into was running so slow, i didnt get done.  so i have work to do over the weekend.  boooo...

i did get quite a few things accomplished this week.  i got our hotel room booked for nick and maggies wedding in june.  since we are going to be in kc for a couple days anyway, michael and i decided to stay a few days after the wedding and have a little mini vacation to celebrate the end of the school year for both of us.  so we will be in kc from thursday, june second until monday, june sixth.  we got a great deal on a hotel downtown in the power and light district.  the hotel usually books for about one fifty five per night, but we are getting it for sixty per night.  i officially love the priceline.com name your own price tool.  i also got a gift for maggie for when she has a bridal shower.  im very excited about it as well.  i started planning our kc trip this week, here are some of the things we would like to do...  boulevard brewing company tour, dueling piano bar, legends shopping center, the melting pot for cheese and chocolate fondue, and the plaza.  we should stay plenty busy.

so next week is parent teacher conferences.  i will have to stay at school from four to eight on monday and tuesday nights giving conferences.  wednesday is the last day of school for the kids, then i will have more conferences on thursday morning from eight to noon.  then i will have the rest of the day thursday off and all day friday.  we are going to wichita for the weekend to celebrate mamas birthday that was on wednesday and also to go to amys baby shower.

i also found out yesterday that my school district made a decision on how to make up the missed time for the snow days we had.  we are going to add fifteen minutes to each school day, beginning school at eight fifteen and ending at three fourty, we are also not getting good friday off, and the last day of school that was previously a half day is now a whole day.  while im not thrilled abouy having to go to school more each day, im glad our last day of school is still may twentieth.  that will give michael and i ten days to get everything packed and moved to a new home before we have to head to kc for the wedding.  should be a busy few weeks.

sorry i havent put any new recipes on in a while...  we havent had a ton of money to buy groceries.  i have made at least two new things in the last week, i will take some time later today and tell you about them.

hope your lives are going well.  i look forward to hearing back from you.
