Back to School...

I can't believe it's September 1st already! Tacoma schools started today (with some struggles) and I have been helping Maggie decorate her 1st grade classroom in Lakewood. SO MUCH FUN! Not enough to make me want to become a teacher, but fun none the less.


Here is the birthday board! Little candles with the kids names on them will go on the cake each month :)


the monthly calendar and weather chart


and my favorite.... the reading progress board! As the kids complete their reading their car moves along the "reading road to success!"

My classes start on Sept 19th...I even picked up my parking permit! I'm an official TCC student! Not sure yet if I'm taking 1 or 2 classes.....it will be just biology IF I get the job in Seattle in had a second interview for yesterday. (side note: it's a Risk Reporting Coordinator for Emeritus Senior Living, in downtown Seattle... cross your fingers!) If I don't get the job I'm going to stay enrolled in Chemistry as well.

I've started selling Pampered Chef products as an Independent Consultant ... pretty excited!

AND I'm going to start a couple volunteer opportunities... one at Tacoma General Hospital on a cardiac floor and another helping an elderly woman in Seattle about once a month organizing things in her home. Keeping busy! Phew...I'm exhausted just typing about it all, but I'm very excited about it all.

Oh, and to the Penny fans...she is doing great. Pictured below with her best friend, Dusty.
