Catch Up

  Last week was a pretty busy week. Tropical Storm Nadine decided to pay us another visit. This time she only got up to 50mph winds so that was good but she did stay longer. It came Wednesday night, stayed until Thursday evening, then I felt like it was going to leave because the sun came out. Friday it didn't rain so much but there was heavy winds. We were lucky not to get any water threw our windows, although this time we did get water between our roof and wall. It went behind our TV and formed a big puddle, which was a  surprise when I found it the next day.
  My husband was stressed all last week because he is trying to get his Bachelors in Education. He wants to be a math teacher and a basketball couch. In order to get an Education degree you have to complete so many consecutive weeks in a class room teaching. He thought he could find a school that would work with him because he is in the military and he can't just take off work to go into a classroom all day. We also assumed that there has been other military members who have done this so the schools would have had to work with them. We were wrong. He talked to a couple of different schools and they all said the same thing; you must be in a classroom for some many full days. I can't remember how many but it is a lot of days especially for those people who already have full time jobs. Anyways, so Jared found a way to be able to make it work. He is going to have to work at night, get off work and sleep for maybe two hours and then get up and go teach at school. Pour baby! Its going to be a long couple of months. I honestly don't want to be here for that because he needs his sleep or he gets really cranky. But I know he is going to need as much help as he can get. So he did find a school that he likes and sent in his application and we are waiting to here back from them.
  On the other hand have still not found a good school for me. Now that I have completed my massage therapy school, which was one of the top schools in the nation, and have been to different places and am one of the top massage therapy people every place I go, I have a bit of a problem with schools; meaning I am a bit picky. Why go to a school that is just okay when you can go to one of the top schools. If I work hard at something I want to be the best at it and get taught from the best. Going online doesn't exactly give me the best education. Also, the top schools in the nation don't have complete online physical therapy degrees.
  Our church asked us if we would accept a calling to be Sunday school teachers for ages 12-18. We graciously accepted and are very excited about the calling. There are so many great things about our church but I will get into that another day. The day we were asked we got set apart and taught that day. The boys and girls are so smart and sweet. I am really nervous because I am not that much older than them and I feel like they have so much more to teach me then I could teach them. But with prayer and studying the lessons I know I will do great. Also, I am so excited that my husband and I get to teach together. I learn a lot from him when he teaches because he is really good at it.
  I know there were more things that happened last week but I cant think of them right now. So Ta ta for now. Have a great week :)
