Conferences, Football, and Unpacking, Oh My!

Ok...so, I'm still unpacking in my new apartment, a month later...apparently you have to be there to unpack things...oh well. It's awesome storage for all of my boxes right now! Between all kinds of stuff going on at school and still working at Sylvan, things have been VERY busy! But busy has been good for me lately.

I recently started a read-the-Bible-in-a-year program...it's going well so far. I am really enjoying it. It's such a great way to end my day...it's an online program and I actually have an app on my phone so I can read it while I wait for school to start, etc. It's pretty awesome!

Last week we had our fall parent/teacher conferences. I survived...we saw almost 80 sets of parents in two nights. I was actually thrilled with that! We have about 100 kiddos on our team, so we ended up seeing a HUGE percentage of our parents. It's great that they care enough to show up! Our conferences were student led, so it was fun to watch my kids talk their parents through our energy unit that we just completed and even more fun to watch them get excited as they told their moms and dads about how we just started electricity! I really enjoyed getting to know all of the parents, too.

On a side note, if you ever get ridiculously bored and are interested in what I'm teaching my lovelies...you can visit my blackboard site by clicking HERE. Make sure you use the username LPS and the password GUEST. Feel free to click through the information on the left and see what we're up to!

I've been thoroughly involved with MIZZOU football this season...not that that's anything new. I'm super pumped for OU this weekend and GAME DAY! Too bad I'm an adult and have responsibilities...otherwise I'd so be there...I'll settle for watching it on TV like all the other old alumni. Boo.

Other than that, things have been pretty boring. I'm getting super ready for everything to be finished personally so I can move on...it'll all be over in less than 23 days...not that I'm counting or anything.
