Good morning everyone!

It's another chilly October morning in Ottawa. Lots to do today. I have a big interview on Monday. I have to go to a friend's house. He is going to help me prepare. The interview is for a temporary teaching position until the end of January. Yes, I could have temporarily have my own classroom. Crazy, isn't it? I just need to prepare a lot this weekend. With all this, I am going to need to send in my resignation for my current job. On top of this, I keep receiving phone calls to supply teach. If I don't get the temporary position, I will be making myself available to supply as of a week from Monday.

Things are changing for me, aren't they? I have went from no employment for a month to too much employment! I feel terrible for resigning from my position after only three weeks, but this is the profession that I have been chasing for the past two and a half years. I hope they understand.

I should get going. I have a busy day ahead. And, yes, this day also includes going to the mall to search for Christmas decorations! Very excited!

Have a great Saturday, everyone! The weekend has arrived. It's the final one of October. Let's enjoy it.

---------- TRAVEL ALERT ----------


For the final time this year, I will be venturing to to the coast to wrap
things up for the rental season and winterize the cottage.

A volunteer will be needed for one day only this time (this Sunday).
Any takers?

Have a great time and a safe trip!

Good morning, everyone! Sorry I've been absent for a week or so, but it's been soooo incredibly busy here at my house. I know I try to check in at least say hi, but like I said, it's just been non-stop. If I try to tell you everything that's been going on with my kids activities, you will get bored reading!

Anyway, how are you all doing? We've been doing very well. I had a great week with my kids. DH was very busy - he worked his normal days and took a class all week, so that made me extra busy, on top of everything else, but we had a lot of fun, everyday.

As far as the weekend, he's actually away now, at the Pitt vs. Navy game, which it's at Navy (in Annapolis, MD). The kids and I are spending the day watching Halloween specials on Disney Jr., then this evening, we have a Halloween parade EA will be twirling in. My sister and boyfriend will take DS, that way he can watch it.

Tomorrow will be just spent relaxing, since I head back to work tomorrow night. I know I've missed a lot on here, important things as well. Know that I am thinking of all of you. Miss all of you dearly and pray for all of you daily as well!

I am off to read the post for today. God Bless and keep smiling!

I'm not sure when it's officially allowed by my husband's standard's, but I've been playing it for a few weeks now and he hasn't said anything! :!!

Hey guys!!

Hope you're having a great morning =]

I had a nice surprise delivered to me- Love At The Thanksgiving Day Parade & Hitched For The Holidays!!

I had pre-ordered the DVD's a few months ago, and they had slipped my mind.

I can't wait to watch them again!! They were some of my favorites from last years Hallmark Christmas movie premieres!

Good morning!
Well I sat myself down in bed last night to do some reading and immediately fell asleep. I woke up at 2:00 in the morning. The book was still in my hands, I was fully dressed (including shoes), never took my makeup off. I hate when that happens. Then I found my husband on the couch in the den, the tv was on and he was sound asleep. What a lively bunch we are. Getting old stinks. And of course after I settled back in to bed I was wide awake and tossed and turned for the rest of the night. Then one of my cats jumped on my night table at about 3:00 a.m. and I swear she was looking at something in my room, but there was nothing there. Unless she saw a ghost, lol. My cats do that once in a while and it really freaks me out. Anyway, its probably going to be a long day. My goal is to get all of my daily chores done and go food shopping at some point. I will be happy if I get that done.
I hope everyone is well and has a happy Saturday!!!
