Another week has come and gone. MY GOODNESS GRACIOUS - it's almost NOVEMBER! Which means it's almost DECEMBER! Which means it's almost CHRISTMAS! Baby's FIRST CHRISTMAS! (And my 28th). Haha.
This week seemed long and stressful. Stressful because of many things: work, home, friends, family, personal stuff. It just seemed drawn out and exhausting. Every night that I could, I was in bed by 7 p.m.....trying to catch a few extra Zzzzz's to survive until the weekend. Of course, instead of sleeping, my mind took those extra hours as a chance to race around the same scenarios, over and over until that in itself exhausted me sleep ;) I wonder what life is like for those who are anti-worry-warts.......
N-E-WAYS. Let's catch up. What's fun?
I have a favourite student (don't lie - you have one too!), and yesterday she said:
"Miss! I have come up with a new name for myself. It's (name), (name) The Fabulous!!!" It was amazing. Complete with a little shoulder shimmy. And her enthusiasm makes me believe that we were actually sisters in another life.
In other student news, I had one of my darlings say:
"Miss! I have a talent. I can write on my paper with no eyes!" He continued to showcase this"talent" and after checking out the final product, he looked back at me and said, "but the problem is that my pencil goes wherever it wants on the page!" If things like this qualify as a talent, our world is bursting with talented individuals ;)
What else?
THIS video made my life. Thank you to Ms. Sophia for posting it on Facebook and giving me a much-needed smile at work this week! I LOVE IT.
Other things that are making my life. Halloween. I am not usually a huge fan of the holiday. I don't like scary things. I hate it when people use eggs for reasons beyond food or Easter. And I'm not really big on bags of candy. To be perfectly honest, I see this holiday as a means to an end (the end being Christmas!) and I half-pretend to enjoy it for the sake of my own optimistic, happy spirit. HOWEVER, THIS YEAR, I'm diggin' it. Turns out Halloween is a pretty O.K. thing when you're dressing up a little one! Today we spent 4 hours searching for Nory's costume and she gets to wear it at the Autumn fair tomorrow!!! I can't wait. Like - I can't even STAND how adorable she's going to look. I have her costume laid out in the living room and it's taking everything I have not to wake her up, put it on, and start an early trick-or-treating ritual ;)
Also, tomorrow is Phil's first soccer game with the U14 team. As well, we have a first year birthday party to attend at 5 p.m.
Mmmmmm hmmmm....busy people, I tell ya! Schedules like ours are how it's almost November. Yep, THIS IS HOW it is almost November.
Enough rambling. Let's call this a post ;)
XOXO
