Blessed

Today has been an exciting day! We went to Office Depot this morning at 9am for their Teacher Appreciation Day. I got a bag with a planner and a fancy pin (the button on top isn't a clicker, it's an eraser!!). Manny and I stuck around for the raffle. We ate out breakfast tacos courtesy of Rudy's. Their BBQ is definitely better than their breakfast tacos that's for sure! But oh well, it was free.... I won one of the raffle items. I got an X-Acto Pencil Sharpener. I already had one at school, so now I have one at home :-) The second Office Depot we went to, gave me a bag with a planner and a fancy pen too. We ate our fruit and Chick-Fil-A breakfast sandwich while we waited for the raffle. I won!!! This time I had a choice between a teacher rolling cart, a wireless mouse, or a 32GB flashdrive... I chose the flashdrive. I don't know if I will ever fill 32GBs. Sweet!!

When I told my oldest sister that I had won, she wasn't surprised. I bet my mom won't be either when I tell her. I'm not lucky, just blessed :-)

The goods:

After Office Depot, we went to my last soccer game for the summer. Luckily the fall season starts in a few weeks! I can't miss soccer for long. Haha

The most exciting part of today was finishing my classroom. YAY!!!! I finally managed to put everything where it belongs. I didn't take a lot of detail shots, I only took one from the doorway, but now you can see the tabletops. Sweet! 

All ready to go! Just add minions. 

I almost cried last night thinking about going back to work. I have to stay positive and tell myself it's going to be a good year. It will be a busy year for sure, but I can do it. I cannot be defeated and I refuse to quit. 

I'm glad to be back with all my teacher friends. I missed them a lot over the summer. I told Manny I want a job where I don't have to do any work, I just have to socialize with my friends :-) If only life was that easy. Haha 

Well I have a few more projects to finish for school. I need to get to work. Plus when Manny finishes this chapter, we are going to watch another episode of The Bachelorette. Two more episodes to go!!! Yes!! 

Have a wonderful weekend and be blessed :-)
