So many things are going on in my head lately. I've started subbing for the year. Well, you know that from my last entry. After that day, I subbed Monday and Tuesday at the middle school and had 2 AWESOME days. So really, i guess it just depends on the kids in the classes, not just the age range. I was happy.
Tuesday, of course, I woke up with a nasty cold that has me home today. So, once again, thank God that I had wonderful students, if not, I would never have made it through the day.

I'm feeling pretty good about Christmas this year. Since Dave received his bonus we aren't going to be drowning in bills, so hopefully we can put together a nice soiree for us this year. I have already begun my shopping. Picking up things here and there for the kiddos. I'm hoping this will help alleviate the last minute money-spending and shopping trips.
We are going to put money away specifically for Black Friday shopping and I am super excited. Although it is less than enjoyable to go and freeze to get into a store in the wee morning hours it is super enjoyable when you fill your cart to the brim with things that are on sale for only a fraction of the cost. Before kids, I wouldn't have been caught dead out there... after kids, I wouldn't be caught at home. The deals are just too good. So maybe this year by the week after thanksgiving or so, our shopping will be done.
This year I also want to plan a girly party for my kids. I think it would be so fun for them to have a girls' pajama party with crafts, hot cocoa, and a Christmas movie or two. I definitely want to do that, but keep it small, probably just my 2 and 2 to 4 other children. That should be fun!
As you can tell, I LOVE Christmas! every part! I can't wait for it to get here.

I went out once on Black Friday and that was enough for me!
Every time I read the word "sub" in your blog it makes me want to go to Blimpie ;D
Oh goodness, my mom use to do black friday shopping. I HATED it. Too crammed for my taste. I'd rather shop deals year 'round than subject myself to that sort of torture. :)
And yes, THEY DO GROW UP. Did you know that? NO ONE TOLD ME! ;) hehehe.
