In other news with our family, I started working at Jubilee Christian Prep Academy as the Assistant Director at the end of June. I really like working there, and the kids love it too! It's a small school that's just starting out. Katherine is in the Pre-K class, even though she doesn't turn 4 until December. That's the beauty of going to a Private School. She's learning so much! And Ethan's class is also doing a school curriculum. He's learing a lot too! I'm very pleased with how that's going.
We are also on another hunt for a house. This time, we are going to try to buy! Chris is in Pittsburg this weekend, instructing a class, and I'm looking at houses without him tomorrow afternoon. He did get to look at a promising one on Friday, and I'll take a look at it tomorrow. It needs some work, but it's stuff we can mostly do ourselves, like paint and flooring. Chris already has plans to knock out a wall between the living room and den to make a great room. And to enlarge the kitchen eventually by taking out the small "eat in" part, as it has a seperate dining room anyway. So, we'll see how it goes.
We plan to make a trip to Albany next weekend for Columbus Day (Chris will be off). We haven't been down since Damien's birthday party in June, so it's been quite a while since we made the trip! Mom was going to meet me half way on Thursday and take Katherine for her 1st over night trip, since we would be down on Friday and it would only be for one night, but my work schedule changed and I work until 7:00pm on Thursday and open at 6:30am on Friday. No way will I be able to drive 3 hours after work. So that plan is out. Damien will be very dissapointed!
I'm also going on a trip to Australia with my Aunt Laura in November. I'm so excited! I've got my passport and have started buying clothes to take on the trip. I've lost a lot of weight since the beginning of summer, so none of my summer clothes fit anymore. And it will be Spring there in November. I've lost about 22 lbs so far and have about 15 left to go to get to my goal! Hopefully I'll keep posting to this blog and can add some stuff while I'm there. I'm hoping to get a net book for an early Christmas present to take with me.
Well, that's all for now.
