Adjustments

Life here has been absolute "you know what". I have been so busy and so tired. The new job for me is VERY stressful. My coworkers are stressed, so it's hard for me to not be stressed. The children that I teach are cute, smart and require tons of energy. I am giving violin lessons to 12 students per week. I am to start two orchestras in the next couple of months. I started school yesterday. Thank goodness I have a loving and helpful husband. When I got home from class yesterday, Tom and the girls had been cleaning house all morning. It realy helps me feel more relaxed, knowing that I don't have tons to do at home.

I passed my PLACE exam with flying colors. After passing the test, I could then sign up for school. After I signed up for school, the same day I got my test results, I was told that I was two weeks behind in my studies. I had Monday through Friday to catch up on two weeks of work and do a 2-3 page paper. I did it, but I am still tired from the week. It feels weird to be back in college again, especially since the instructors are my age. It feels good to stimulate my mind once more. It's strange to think about the turns my life has taken and continues to take. God has plans for me to prosper in ways that I never would have thought of.

We are excited about the coming weekend. It is Labor Day and the big Balloon Fest. We are all looking forward to going. The Tingles are coming for a visit and we hope to get in some time with the Clyatt's and the Basses. I can't wait for my birthday as Jen is coming for a visit. I can't think of a better present.

I won't promise to blog more this week, as I just don't know what is going to happen, but I wanted to catch everyone up for now.

Happy week.
