Update

I get up every work day at 5:00 am and I turn on my computer and check my equipment before class. My first class is 5:30 am. On Monday morning I turned on my computer and I went into my first classroom for the day to see the class timer going instead of counting down to class time. I almost had a heart attack! I thought somehow the computer was mixed up! Lucky for me there was no Chinese student online yet. I clicked over to see my schedule and realized that I had accidentally scheduled myself a half an hour earlier all week. Oy! My student continued to not show up so I would quickly get up and put in my contacts and check, brush my teeth and check, put on make-up and check. The student never showed up which was a miracle. It was a regular class and those parents have to pay for the lessons if they don't cancel 24 hours ahead of time so those classes are RARELY student no shows. Amazing. I couldn't believe my luck. That was stressful! Phew!

I got to get up earlier all week due to my mistake. Oh well! Naps are my friend. On Monday the kids ran through the sprinklers. The weather is getting nice finally. Of course it goes from freezing to sweating but what are you going to do?

On Friday night we went to our friend's house for an end of the school year party bash. It was very fun. Love them! On Saturday we went to my nephews baptism and then that night some of our friends came over and we played games. The weekend always goes too fast. The kids have one last week of school. It will be a busy week for sure.

A friend of mine lost her 10 year old son last night. It happened completely out of the blue. He was a perfectly healthy kid who just passed out with no pulse and no breathing. They called the ambulance and about 8 hours later he was dead. I don't even know if they know why yet. It's just horrible. Life is precious and short. Hold your little ones extra tight tonight.

We went to Gabby's class to see her seahorse project.

Our friends had an end of school year party. My friend Krista is a master party thrower. So fun!




Scott made me stir fry for dinner (a belated Mother's Day dinner) it was so yummy!

I love sitting outside in the summer. LOVE IT! I used to sit on this cute wooden bench but it was so uncomfortable. I couldn't stand another summer like that! I got on Craigslist and found this amazing couch for a great deal. We bought it! The dude bought it brand new last year and kept it in storage and then realized he didn't have room for it. Now it's ours. Amazing! I was probably on that couch for 4 hours today. All the love!

My neighbors sold me this gazelle for $20 at their yard sale. Amazing! It folds in half and fits in my super amazing multi purpose closet. I can get it out and use it in my closet, (while I watch Netflix on my work computer) and fold it back up. I'm so happy! I had to get rid of my treadmill a couple of years ago because it took up too much space. I was very happy to get this bad boy. LOVE!

I made myself some VIP kid shirts. The company doesn't have them for most of their employees so people make their own if they want. I found a girl online who sold me the iron ons. Now I'm legit. Ha.
