The 1st Day of Sept....

there is so much going on in my household .... *sighs*
VERY BUSY times upcoming for all of us .... schedules to get used to (need to get them set in place 1st of all) ....

I was awake EARLY this morning ...SUPER SUUUUUUUUPER early! (TOO early if you ask me!) & what was I doing awake so early? (like.....5 am ... or a lil before!) ......
well - it was out of ANTICIPATION and WORRY about my NEW class(room)! 
.......... did i put up what I needed right away?..... do i have all the curriculum collected and set out for my year plans........ what themes will I do this year? ........ do i have enuf resources in the classroom for what I want to do? ......... what is my 1st day going to LOOK LIKE? SOUND LIKE?

I am a bit WORRIED ..... and excited ....... but mostly worried .... I hope I do well as I think I will do!

My kids are getting out of the staying up late now! (FINALLY!) THAT was easy to get them to do ... just put them to bed early n' of course, they were messing around .... (for a few hours) ... then ... wake'em up EARLY! *lol* By the time the end of the day (8pm) rolls around ... in BED they go! ;) Plus letting them know they are on a schedule.... i.e. "you have 15 minutes to snack time ... bed time .... showers....brush your teeth, etc...sets them up for NITE NITE time! :)

DD Victoria is going to Grade 4 (intermediate years! WHOA!)
DD Barb is going to Grade 7 - LAST year of Intermediate! (WHOA!)
DS Harvey is going to Grade 10 - WHOA! Time to tighten the belt and get the BEST grades he can get 'cuz this is the year to lay the foundation for his Sr. Years!!!! (WHOAAAAAAA!)

LOL!

Mommy - starting Kindergarten!!! (teaching that is!) lol......

OK.....I think this is about it on the homefront...........

as for scrapbooking ....... I just opened my August kit this past weekend and did ONE LO ... how pitiful! hahaha .... work has been keeping me busy... BUT ...that will NOT be AS BAD once I get the foundation laid for my Kindergarten Program .... 

BUT ... I looked at the NEW kit for Bad girls .... WOW! I am excited! I LOVE that flower ribbon ...or whatever you call it! hahaah ... they are WAY cute! :)
