Application

So today, I filled out the application for Chasity to go to another school district. However, this year, they have decided to change the application.

In the past two years, because I've applied to be released every year, their application never stated that Chasity would not be allowed to ride the bus. THIS YEAR, it says that the parents will provide transportation.

So, in my letter that I attached to the application stating WHY we need her to go to this other school, I included that not only do I need them to allow her to attend this school, I need them to allow her to ride the school bus TOO! :)

This other school district has to send the application for enrollment to the school board. So, I had to do the application today. They had to have it by Thursday so the school board members could read/review it before the meeting on Monday night! I am SERIOUSLY considering attending that meeting on Monday just to get my answer ASAP! lol

I'm NOT a patient person! So, I am considering it. I might check to see where they are meeting and see if it is open to the public. If it IS open to the public, I might just "accidentally on purpose" show up!

I'm just hoping they will agree! I will probably just need her to go there for THIS YEAR! After that, I should have a job and can pay for her to go some where else....not that I WANT to pay!

Anyways..... we'll see what happens!


Until next time........

Hi Leslie,

I hope it works out for you. I got so frustrated with our school system at times during my daughters education with them. I wish you the best!

Curious to know why this year the school 'changed' the application form to eliminate the bus for children who may need it...perhaps you folks live to close to the school and there is a mile limit? I know some schools do that...students who live within a mile or three radius of the school do not get transportation to and from the school because it's too close. Who knows, and I certainly don't know your particular situation, however, I hope that you are able to get your daughter on the bus. Continued good luck in your endeavors.

Emotional Easter

WARNING: This post is going to be REALLY long. Don't say you weren't warned! This is the post I have tried to convince myself not to write so that no one's feelings get hurt. However, my feelings got hurt, and so I have a right to write about it! :) Right? I'm not trying to hurt anyone with this, I'm just trying to sort things out in my brain. Writing is my best outlet for that. Anyways, I should preface this by saying that I come from a family that travels in herds/gaggles/armies/groups/whatever you call the large group of people you go out to eat with or hang out with most of the time. This weekend, we had some people come into town. We were invited Friday night to go out to eat with them at 7pm at a restaurant that is infamous for making you wait at least an hour around 7pm. There were going to be 8 adults and 5 kids.....13 total (I think!)! (That's about the normal size for the "army" we travel with here.) The other 10 people arrived around

My Strange Collection--But Not Strange to Me!

Recently (just a minute ago) I visited Avr over at Just to Write . Today she is talking about things we collect. She collects unicorns. So in her comments today, I added my comment: Well... I collect Salt & Pepper shakers. I have been collecting them as long as I can remember. The rule is that they have to be unusual AND I don't buy them for myself! They have to come from other people....My Grandmother has the beginnings of my collection at her house. Some of them date back to WWII. Her uncle sent them here from overseas when he was fighting in WWII. So that is why I started collecting.... HOWEVER... I too have a collection of unicorn stuff. It has been packed up for a couple years now. I have seriously thought about putting it on eBay just to get rid of it. I started collecting those on my 7th bday. A friend gave me one for my bday and I loved it. Then I would see them everywhere. Then it became an obsession for a while! lol Now I think I'm just going to stic

Saving Money

Tony and I have always WANTED to save money. However, when we got married, we didn't start right away. Then two years later, Chasity was born. Then it was almost IMPOSSIBLE! Now, we've been married for 9 years, and we have VERY LITTLE actually saved. It seems like every time we get a little saved, something has to be fixed.... usually the car! lol It does need work now, but we're waiting.... but I don't think we can wait long. We know that when I actually get a teaching job, we'll be able to save about 1/3 (maybe more) of my paycheck every month....since we've been living for almost 4 years on just Tony's check anyways. However, I have decided that I want to start saving now! So.... here's my plan. It's really really hard....just kidding! The only thing I need to know is this.....Does Wal-Mart still match prices? If not, my plan is doomed! If so, I'm good to go! I have gone through all the sales papers for this week. I have circled thi
