My Babies Are All Grown Up




First day of school was a success. I really fell into the trap of hearing great stuff about certain teachers and really wanting those certain teachers. Owen and Claire did not get "those certain teachers." Luckily, I hear great stuff about CC's first grade teacher. She is young and pretty and Claire likes young and pretty! Am I getting repetitive? Funny sidenote is that Claire is sitting right in the middle of a kid named Mohammed and a kid named Christian. Maybe I will get her a little Coexist bumper sticker for her desk?


So last year there was a third grade teacher that was the "quad police" before school started, she was always blowing a whistle (early in the morning, before the second cup of coffee). So the moms were always like, "I hope Johnny doesn't get the whistleblower next year." Owie got the whistleblower. I have a feeling it will be a military like school year for him. Is that a bad thing? He also has a kid in his class whose nickname is "Juvie." I wish I was kidding.


So what am I gonna do with my days? I should get a job, but between you and me that sounds kinda awful. I am going to sign up for a computer class at the Gibson Senior Center, maybe I will hang out for Bingo. I could always organize my sock drawer, finally catch up on a soap opera. The opportunities are endless....


Bill is working for a new company, I think that this will be a good fit for him. He is excited and happy about it. The company is called Global Tranz and he is the VP of the Western Region. The commute is much better which means he eats dinner with the family again!


Until next time...
