Getting Released....

....is only half the battle.

Yesterday, well last night about 9:30pm, when I finally checked the mail, I got only ONE piece of mail. It was the piece of mail I had been waiting on since the beginning of June.

CHASITY IS RELEASED from her current school district! Now... I just have to apply to have her attend the school I NEED her in. If this school will accept her, I can drop her off at day care with my mom in the mornings. She will get on the bus there. Then the bus will drop her off there. I won't have to pay $400/month for before and after school care. I can trust that she is getting great care!

I will be going to apply for that on Tuesday. I'll post updates as soon as I have information!


Until next time........

Leslie - hooray for you and sticking to your convictions. I too am changing schools for my 7 year old.

This year we are trying a charter school near our home - ok, 3 miles. There is free before- and after-school care (I'm not sure what it would normally cost. I signed our daughter up the day before the cutoff date to receive the deal.

Up until the 2010-11 school year, we had our daughter in a public school and because I worked for the district I received free before- and after-school care for my daughter. This year employees have to pay 20% or 25% of what everyone else has to pay. I can't afford that working or not!

Thank goodness we decided to try something new!

Weight Update!!

Last week, I didn't weigh myself because I was sick! Plus, I didn't really eat anything much at all last week. I did, however, register for Weight Watchers online. So I did spend time reading up and learning about the program. Today, I got on the scale. Two weeks ago, I weighed 402. Today, I weigh 390! In two weeks, I have lost another 12 lbs. That makes a total of 26 lbs. so far! I'm excited! Yeah, if you look at the previous post about my weight, it says that I started at 412. Yeah... I looked at the paper wrong. I started at 416. I lost 4 lbs the first week. I lost 4 lbs the second week. I lost 6 lbs the third week. Then I didn't weigh in last week. I weighed in today at 12 lbs down! I can tell it mostly in my pants. I HATE for my pants to be baggy, so I buy them to fit! Yesterday, I wore my black dress pants to church and I had to keep pulling them up. I'm going shopping next Sunday with my mom! I'm so happy! Next Sunday is my bday! So.....

Still Learning

Ok...so I'm always learning something new. However, recently, I have seriously been thinking about something. I want to learn to sew. My mom has a sewing machine I can use any time I want to. Of course, if I really learn to sew, I'd want my own sewing machine! ;) Anyways, I have been checking into classes. I have only found one place in my town that does classes. They offer a 4 week class for $115. That's not bad for a class. But, I'm afraid I wouldn't learn in 4 weeks and I'd need to take the class again! lol Anyways, I'm still looking into it. I'd love to learn. I will one day. However, I've seen some REALLY cute things that I'd love to sew for Chasity to wear! :) Until next time........

NC Weather

Image
In the state of NC, we rarely get that BIG SNOW. They used to be more common.  We used to get one huge snow a year.  Now, we are lucky if we get one every 2-3 years.    However, schools are cancelled, delayed, or let out early for weather all the time here.  We haven’t heard anything today about our schools, but we shall see.    It’s all about waiting to see what happens.  Sometimes, I think that God is sitting up there showing us HIS sense of humor.  He lets the weather people tell us whatever they want to tell us.  Then HE decides to have some fun with the weather.  (That’s just my 2 cents!)   Countdown Updates: 0 days until I pick up cookies!  TODAY is the day! They are still calling for “weather,” but they are pushing back the start time to later today. My scheduled pick up time is 6pm. So, we shall see.  It should be fine. Tony is going to drive me there so I’m not having to do it alone.  Then ...
