my lazy days have come to an end…

this has been a very nice, relaxing spring break at home. a number of my colleagues were a bit shocked at my sheer delight in being home for spring break. i love to travel, there’s no doubt about that. however, i can be a huge homebody as well. and, i needed some time to just be home. in fact, there were a couple days this past week when i never left the house! i’m truly blessed to have had such a nice week!

• it has been good to get a few things taken care of around the house. one big thing that i tackled was the tupperware cupboard–just in case someone opens the cupboards when looking at the kitchen, i don’t want to scare them off with a mountain of tupperware at their feet!
• i’ve spent many, many, many hours scrapping! i ran out of adhesive, completed an album, i’m almost out of pages, and i’m almost out of printed pictures! i’m in june of 2006 that means…i get to scrap our wedding next!!
• i’ve watched many baseball games, and many movies (while scrapping)
• i caught up with several friends over tasty meals
• i spent three hours at school–it felt great to get some new bulletin boards put up, and i did some cleaning and organizing. i brought home some grading to do yet this evening, and i am in the middle of making a new bulletin board. i used my cricut for all the titles and a few shapes; now i can laminate them.
• i enjoyed some down time with ty. it’s great to hang out and not feel like i should be doing something for school! he worked, but he was able to be home a bit more too.

we had someone go through the house this past week–they weren’t interested, “it shows nice but has a tight floor plan”. we got a call this weekend from our realtor that someone will be coming through tomorrow evening. so, i’ve been picking up around the house this afternoon; i should probably fold some laundry too! i may even bake some chocolate chip cookies later tonight, just so the house smells tasty! i’m probably in for a lot of let downs if i continue to think this way, but i can’t help but hope that whomever comes through tomorrow just falls in love with our little abode and puts in an offer! i can dream, right?

i hit the ground running this week with at least four meetings (that i know of!). april and may are notoriously busy around school, so it’s great to have had the time to recharge. well, the tigers are losing by a lot (again) and the cubs are losing as well (at least it’s close!). i sure wish the mariners were on tv more often; ‘course they aren’t doing any better! LOL!

have a wonderful sunday afternoon. the sun is peeking out of the clouds right now…it’s cold outside, but it’s sunny! yea!
