Schools out for summer!!!!

As of today, I am officially on summer break! I don't HAVE to go back to school until August 11! I can't believe my first year is already over. It's been a great learning year and I do truly love my job, but I was so needing a break!

I'm possbily teaching summer school, so I'll be back next week. That's 4 weeks long. I have a conference next weekend. Then I have about a week off, then I go on a mini vacation with my mom and grandma. Then about another week off and I go to a conference for school for about a week. Then I am going on a girls only trip with my mom, sister and niece, we are giong to take her to the American Girl Place in Chicago. She informed us that at 5, she IS big enough for an American Girl doll, a big one. She has the Bitty Baby, but wants a big one. So that's my summer! It only gets busier I'm afraid.

We found out this morning that our puppy has worms, the hubs took her out this morning and noticed them. So we have a vet appointment for tomorrow morning. She's been a really good puppy so far, with one exception. This week she has started peeing the bed. She has not had any other potty problems, she has been doing very good on her potty training and telling us she had to go. But since Monday she'll just be laying in bed and pee where she's laying. Only in the bedroom. Last night was the test night. I laid her on a blanket that was folded so if she did it again, it wouldn't go through to the mattress topper. She didn't wet last night. I don't know what her problem is. Maybe it was just a fluke thing and she won't do it anymore. I called the vet and they said that it was probably a behavior problem due to her age.

The Princess graduates preschool...

So the Princess graduated from preschool! It was a very long and very boring ceremony, but being the great aunt that I am, I enjoyed every minute of it! I think that she had the most family there of all of the preschoolers. Now I worked in a preschool and I understand how important it is to the kiddos.

Defying Gravity...

Well, I had a very busy weekend. My brother-in-law graduated from CMSU (I know it's now UCM, I just can't bring myself to call it that yet!) So my mom and I went to that and to his party. I think his mom was drunk, my sister says that's the way she always acts! She actually walked the recessional with him. The crazy woman didn't even go to his high school graduation, but had to get her way for this one. Then we went to another party for a family friend. It was not very exciting, we ended up leaving because I didn't feel good. That suited my parents just fine!

Sunday night my grandmother took my mom, my sister and I to see Wicked. In the language of my muggle students, OMG!!!! This was an awesome musical. I want to see it again, I had to buy the soundtrack from iTunes last night. I so wanted the hoodie, but I wasn't spending $65 on it. My sister and I are digitizing the logo and making our own. The music, the stage design, the acting were all absolutely wonderful. If you get the chance, GO SEE IT!!!

I'm a Slytherin!!!

I was awarded an Inter-House Unity Scholarship by the Headmistress. After spending 2 years in Ravenclaw, which I truly loved, I decided to switch, I'd like a new experience for this term. I'm soo excited for this term to start. I have had a withdrawel from all my swap emails from last term!

For my muggle job, I have 8 full days and 2 half days of school left! We pretty much just have graduation left as a major event. I just finished my 6th Masters level class, just 4 more to go then my research paper.
