Temples, Glasses and Colar Bones

Well Scott and I are about six temple discussions and Bishop and Stake Presidents interviews away from going to the temple. I am so excited.

Shelby finally got her filtered glasses. What a cutie. She looks really good in them. The shape suit her face really well and the tinting isn't very dark. Like slightly tinted sunglasses. Already we have seen a difference in her. More so that she has noticed a difference with her enviroment. As soon as she put them on she started to see things clearer. Almost unrecognizable. So far I have noticed it the most with her school work. She deffinatly has to re-learn her ABC's and her 123's. Now that they aren't distorted she can't recognize them for what they are supposed to look like. I am so happy for her,,,but she still has a road to travel.

Tristin went skiing with the Jr. High about a month ago. Well he had a tumble on icy snow as broke his left colar bone. Pour kid didn't know our phone number and the school couldn't get ahold of us that day. So we didn't find out until he came home in a sling. He started to cry as soon as he saw his mom and dad. Broke my heart.
He just took off the sling yestersay. So much easier for him especially in his guitar classes and band class. Now he has to build up his muscles in his arm from a month of inactivity. He complains that his arm is rubbery. LOL!

Working

I have started to work at the schools. I got hired as a substitute Teachers Aid. I haven't worked that much yet,,but when I do I am a toby for all the teachers. it's okay. It keeps the day rollin. If I stick with it for long enough, there is a good chance that I can get hired full time. Right now I am not ready for that,, kids and all,,,but it may be something for the future.

Time Has Flown By

I guessed I never realized how long it has been since I last wrote in my blog. part of me just feels like I am talking to thin air. So if anyone is actually reading this....write comment,,because it feels stupid to be writing for myself.
Anyways,,,Christmas was good,, the kids got a trampoline and a Play Station 3. Actually Scott got the PS3 mostly for himself. I don't know who was more excited to have it. Husbands and Kids. Ha
For some reason I was really happy to have Christmas over. Right after New Years I was taking the tree down. Kind of strange,,but it was a wierd season this time round. I guess I didn't feel content with life. Still feeling like my life has no direction. You would think that I would be used to that by now,,,but it is still hard to deal with at times. Especially whenI am lonely.
It is times like that that I miss Whitecourt an all that is familiar. At least there I had friends and clients that kept me busy. Not just fighting kids.
Speaking of fighting kids,,I had a meltdown with them about three weeks ago. I had had enough. I took away ALL there privilages. Including fun foods and drinks until they stopped fighting and treated eachother kinder,,,and until they started becoming more resposible for themselves. It was hard on my,,,to hav to deal with boared kids for a week,,but they slowly started to earn back privilages.
I just had to crack down on them again,,,started fighting too much again,,,so all privilages gone again,,,but this time they have delt with it different. They know that I mean business an they are getting back to getting along. More peace for me. That, and I don't have to listen to the PS3 all day.
On a differnt note. Our renters have shown a large interest in the house in WCT. We gave them an incentive. Said we would carry some of there rent money towards to purchase or down payment of the house. They liked that idea. So we will see what happens. Hopefully we will know more what is to happen in the next few weeks. Cross your fingers!
Scott got a promotion at work. All his dedication and business has paid off. He now is and Operator #2 statis at work. Big deal, because he has only been there a year,,,and a lot of guys above him have been here a lot longer and do not have there Op. #2 yet. Pretty cool.
Along with the new statis,,is a raise. But unfortunalty they had a whole bunch of layoffs ato work and they are going to be having longer shutdowns,,,so he will be loosing alot of hours. So the raise may just compensate the less hours. Small blessings.
