More On The Week

School continues to be an exciting place. I love having a job where every day is different, except my one hour workout hauling trash bags and tearing down the lunch room.

Finally caught that pesky squirrel off-guard. Bring it ya fur ball!

Thursday was a mess of jobs. Every five minutes was either someone calling about an IT problem, or my boss calling about a maintenance job. I like getting to prioritize and run to the next job, as long as the day ends at a decent time. My maintenance boss likes to talk on the phone alot, even when we're just at opposite ends of the school, and it's a blessing to continue to grow closer in friendship and professional trust. I'm always learning.

Again - there's always food at school, but Thursday, the school could have fed all the starving children in Uganda. The Mother's fellowship group at school, who's goal is to make mother's feel welcomed and encouraged by reaching out of their comfort zone (brilliant) also reached out to the faculty by making six crock pots of soups and stews. I tried. I tried SO hard, but I just couldn't try them all. Please forgive me.

The whole week was actually pretty crazy, mainly because of the 4th grade patriotic program Thursday. I didn't see the whole thing, but for the most part, each kid is given a character from US history about which to give a four or five sentence speech during the program.

Caleb's teacher had to act quickly to prevent a sure wardrobe malfunction in the making.

Show time! I see two kids here who go to my church. That's the other fun thing. I'm still finding more and more kids who's family I already know. Just found three more today!

Josh was JFK. His dad, my boss, was hoping to bring in a BB gun during the program in order to reenact the assassination. Too soon?

Caleb was Teddy Roosevelt. Josh, are you picking your nose???
