Bathroom Makeover

Back when Scott and I decided not to try to move to a bigger house for a lot of reasons we decided we would get a shed and I decided I would re-do most of the house. Bit by bit I've been doing that. I took a break in December because...Christmas. Next on my list was the bathrooms. I wasn't sure when I would get the gumption but then I realized it was a 3 day weekend so what the heck! Originally I was only planning on doing the main bath but I blew through that and painted the master bathroom as well. On the main bathroom I painted the walls, painted the back splash tile, got a new shower curtain, waiting on a new shower rod, spray painted picture frames, spray painted the rusty vent, spray painted the hardware, got some new glass fixtures for light fixture, and got some shelves and decor. I am in love! In the master I am hoping to figure out how to frame our mirror. I want a new light fixture. I am currently spray painting the hardware. I also want a new sink, not sure if that one will happen. Next on my list is to figure out some sort of photo gallery for my dining kitchen area. We will see when I get the vision and motivation for that.

I made it through the first week of my 3 week sub job. It's at Centennial High School which is really close so that is nice. What I also love is the special ed kids get on the bus about 20 minutes before school is out so I split as fast as I can and I don't have to try to leave the parking lot at the same time as hundreds of teenagers. It's the best!  I'm working in the extended resource room. I'm mainly working with a couple of students. One boy I work with is non verbal. He's pretty mellow though so that's nice. The other kid can be more challenging although he can communicate some. The first two days were LONG! It's just a really boring job. I'm trying to manage my boredom the whole time. Wednesday was better. I kind of got more used to the slow rhythm of the day. Thursday and Friday were half days and I as done by 10:30. Praise be! Two more weeks! Ha.

I finished teaching my last week of online classes on Friday! So glad to be done! I'm not sure if this will be a permanent break or not but I'm for sure not teaching again until day light savings in March where I will get more money for the sacrifice of the early hour.

Corbin was sick on Wednesday and stayed home alone. He started an oven mitt on fire while he was making some ramen noodles. I'm glad he didn't burn the house down! So that was an adventure.  He felt good enough to go to school the next day. He had his finals last week. He did well. Gabby and her friend Audelia tried out for the talent show and made it. I will be excited to see their dance. Gabby did most of the choreography herself. Piper and Ryan are great. They get themselves off to school on time by themselves because Gabby likes to leave earlier than they do. They are responsible little people.

Whoops!
