I thought that I would update as its been awhile since I updated last! Let's see...
Micaela is crazy busy with school, worship practice, showchoir performances and show times, and then time to see her friends and boyfriend :-) Tonight she has her first performance with the showchoir at Northrop tonight, and then tomorrow they perform again at the Bluffton fair, I can NOT wait to see them and what they can do. I have a shirt with the showchoir name on it and my name to support Micaela I think that I need to make a badge type thing, like what the football and band Moms had when I was in school :-) That is my mission!
Gabe is doing really well in school, he brought home his first " progress report " and only had 2 low grades and he fixed one of those right away ( missing assignments ) and the other one we are working on bringing that up. I am just thankful he is liking this school and he is excelling at this school. He is actually bummed when they don't have school its cute and makes my heart smile, that he is liking school more this year! I don't expect either of my kids to get all As but I do expect them to try their hardest and if that is a C then so be it. I know they both can do anything that they put their minds too.
Scott is doing so awesome! He has lost I believe 23.5 pounds now, he has a goal weight and is like 17 pounds away from reaching that! We both watch what we eat and how much and when, and he also has been riding his bike to and from work, and then doing bike rides with his brother Ryan and Damon. Some of the bike rides that they go on are like 13 or more miles long! Its crazy, but its making Scott happy and he is looking awesome :-)
Me I am doing well in school, we have been in session for over a month now, and I am at A- in one class and I believe a B in the other, and we just took our first test in Accounting ( a little nervous about that ) but I have the whole semester to bring that up if that is the case! I love school, I don't know if this time around I am getting to enjoy it more with not having so much other stuff going on that I can just focus on that or what it is but I am really enjoying it. ( I know I know I am a nerd ) I work full time @ APR and then I bowl on my lady league once a week on Tuesdays, and then I have school 3 classes one face to face ( accounting ) and then 2 business classes online and so far I am doing pretty good I think! I do have my mini " breakdowns " every now and then where I get really overwhelmed, but I am learning to ask more for help from the family, especially when they are offering!
We are having an issue at home with a spot in the house that smells of cat pee ( Bubba went there a few times shortly after the move ) and I am sure that he has since then once or twice and as well as the dogs going there by accident if they aren't let out enough! ANYWAYS I have gotten on my hands and knees and scrubbed, shampooed, swept... I am running out of ideas on what to do so I googled it and have tons of ideas of things to try now and I plan on trying them - they won't hurt right?!? And when no one is there the cats will be in the basement, they have a ton of room to run, their literbox and food are down there , couches to lay on and they will be set and I will add that to clean once a week is mop the downstairs and organize it up a little more!
Well I think for now that's about all that I can think of that's going on with us! I will do a better job at updating !!
