Here I am 30 days until I report back officially to work.
Yikes....
Let's see.... I started the summer thinking I was depressed when really I had a blood/ kidney infection and most likely had it the whole last month of school. I spent until June 18th in bed watching tons of great videos and reading books. You'll have to check out my shelf on shelfari. I've only added a few but will begin to add more.
I will be at Play del Ray next year teaching 4th grade unless my Mall Front Store recruiting students to Gilbert El pans out. (Seriously, A charter school here in Mesa rented a store front at the mall to recruit students. They have 60 new registrations-- I guess it works for the Armed Forces why not elementary school.)
I did get to have a lovely lunch with my book club early on in the summer. The laughs and hugs have really sustained me.
I have driven over 1300 (seriously) miles just getting my kids from here to there. ( I did get one ticket but I'm fighting it. I was over the line. I've watched the video a gazillion times. )
I worked one night at Barnes and Noble.
Last week was the first week that no one needed a ride or carpool. My brother and sister in law came up and we had a staycation. Swimming, sunsplash, pizza, chick flicks, etc.
This week is doctor appointments and house calls.
Nick unfortunately needs to have another sugery. We find out tomorrow when they can schedule it. Please pray before school. It will require 2-3 days hospitalization, 1 week at home recovery and then about another 3 weeks minimum sports etc. I told him that I think he is lucky that he gets to miss the first 3 weeks of p.e. in AZ heat. They are going to be more intrusive in this surgury. THey are going to rebuild the connection from the kidney to the bladder. His kidney still has 25% function so they feel it is still worth saving. Nick calls his kidney Tiny Tim. The other is Kermit.
I get all my test redone this week to see if I'm in the clear. I'm really feeling good and I think I'll have great results.
That's my news... Hopefully I'll get to writing soon.

OH my girlfriend! It is so wonderful to see you back and blogging! I have missed your posts terribly, but I know that things have been busy! Please tell Nick that I am keeping a prayer going for Tiny Tim and that I truly believe things will go well for him and Tim....that sort of ryhmes... I am so grateful, Meagan, that YOU are feeling better! You do so much, so very much...do you take time to take care of you??? I want YOU to make YOU a priority this summer and the upcoming school year. I want you to feel good more than you don't...not the other way around.
