I'm Back

OK y'all let's face the music....I have been MIA for the past month. I have had so much going on, I have no idea where the summer has gone. I have missed everyone and I feel so left out. I have no idea what is going on, what link ups are happening, and I may or may not have forgot my password to log into blogger. I don't even know where to begin. So, I am just going to give you the DL via IG pictures, which I have also been horrible with this summer.

I went with several teachers from my school district to the MEGA conference in Moblie to learn about the new laws, new teaching techniques, and technology updates. Before we got to Mobile, our principal sent Em J and I a text checking on us. He said there was a terrible wreck in front of the hotel. Little did he know that Danny Glover and Nicholas Cage were filing a scene of a movie blowing up cars and such.

MEGA offers hundreds and hundreds of sessions that you can attend and the conference runs from Monday to Friday. So, we had to sit, for several hours, and plan out what we were going to go to and what day to go. We tried to cover as much ground as possible with all of us going to different sessions and then sharing what we learned. There were some sessions, they were so terrible, that we said we are now less intelligent for being there, but you win some, you lose some. Here is Em J trying to schedule out her sessions.

When the school system allows you a food allowance, you learn to be smart. You eat the free breakfast, which was wonderful, you eat leftovers for lunch and then you spend all your money at dinner. This is a fillet with garlic mushroom and asparagus ...absolutely fab!!!!!

I am such a nerd!!! I was all organized and ready to learn......lol!!!!!!

Em J and I are apple nerds here are all out tech gadgets we took to the conference; 3 iPads, 2 MacBooks, and 2 iPhones. Yes, we bought Steve's last house.

Let's begin with this Pinterest project for my classroom. I am OCD when it comes to organizing my classroom. I saw this on the way home from Mobile and I just about had a cardiac arrest and caused Em J to wreck. We immediately had to stop at a Home Depot to buy the tool box and the next day, I was printing, cutting, and taping. It has a lovely home now right behind my desk.

After being gone for a week, I could not wait to get home to this angel. This was one of those days when she said, "Mommy, I am not sleepy!!!!"

As I have mentioned earlier, Josh has been accepted to DNAP school (Dr. of Nurse Anesthesia Practice). We were making our final rounds before he left and we had dinner with this handsome fella. This was Josh's roommate for 4 years through nursing school. I cannot believe I am sending him to school without big Jon. 

Just the girls after dinner....Isn't Emily beautiful and Emma just precious. (No, not all my friends are named Emily.)

And here is where I spent last week. Getting ready for school start. At the moment, we are with Josh in Tennessee, so when I come back it will be time to start school. I had to have everything just right before I left. I am thankful for the Hubs and Vacation Bible School that entertained my child while I worked :)

I still have little things to do, but all in all, it is FINISHED!!!!!! Can I get an Amen, Hallelujah?!?!?!?!? 

Now, we are in Tennessee trying to get Josh settled and get him organized. That is like fighting a bull in a China shop. He thinks he needs nothing and the printer goes in the floor. Heaven help us all as I am having heart palpitations because he could care less if he is organized. 

I don't want to overwhelm you with my exciting life all in one day, so be expecting a post on how all these changes have affected my lupus and my overall health. 

Have a great Tuesday!!!!
