So the blog that I have been reading everyday starting at 25 days of Christmas which has inspired me to make one everyday. I have been able to do that and I can't wait to share. (Actually I have made a few more!) I just have to take pictures. I can't wait to have all my cards finished and be able to send them off to special friends and family. It's going to be so excited for people to enjoy the cards I have made. Stay tuned for some amazing pictures!

Crafting

So I have been making a lot of cards lately and I have been doing this craftyness in the living room while sitting on the floor. I took over the "man table" and organized everything nicely. The only problem is that it all has to be put away for it to look good. While I have my stuff out there is a small walking path. Yesterday I decided that this had to change. So this is what my crafty mind did...
There is a corner of the room that isn't really used so I am now making it my craft area and best of all I get to sit in a chair! I do have pictures of this magnificent craft area and I will have to share.

Subbing

So I sub first grade at another school here and well the classroom was fine, but schools really need to make their subs feel welcome. One school I went to I was welcomed and they already knew who I was subbing for, they walked me to the classroom, made sure that everything was there for me, introduced me to near by teacher, and let me know that I should come/call the office for anything. Then I went to another school. I was sorta welcomed, asked to sign in, and then given direction to the classroom along with a set of keys so that I could unlock it and then bring back the key. Well which school would you rather go to? I will let you decided. As a school you should help make your subs feel welcomed and its super easy. Have someone walk them to the class, show them where the lounge is, show them where the staff restrooms are, and introduce to team teacher(s). This would seriously take like less than five minutes and can all be done while you are walking them to the class. These four simple things will make me and many other subs want to come back again and again. I haven't had a bad experience subbing but I am sure making mental notes of where I would want to get a job and where I wouldn't. Make your sub feel welcome and write good sub plans!

Weather

I can't believe how warm it has been lately (at least during the day). Today its supposed to be 70 degrees out. And its November. I am not complaining but have a feeling that its a bad sign for what is to come...COLD. I am defiantly going to enjoy it while its here. Just have to think of ways to be outside.

Jackie

Happy Birthday Jackie. Hope you have a wonderful day and enjoy the gift that I sent you. Wish I was there to celebrate. I am sure you will have a wonderful day and I can't wait to hear about it!

November

November really? Its here already. Well I don't really know what is going on this month except of course Thanksgiving! I am so excited for Thanksgiving and can't wait to go home and hang out with family and friends. I have a feeling there will be lots of time spend watching TV alone while Donny is doing homework. With all this free time I have started making Christmas cards. And with all this Christmas card making its getting me excited for Christmas! And I can't wait to put out our decorations. So when is it to early to put it up?
