Bad bad blogger

OK so it's been almost a month since my last post. I know you've been breathlessly awaiting to hear from me : ) No pics no graphics hardly any amusing banter just my and my rambling thoughts. Hey you get what you pay for right?

So a quick update before I get distracted again. I thought very seriously about quitting my job but decided not to. I got a crappy evaluation which pissed me off but once I could look at without crying it was not totally unfair or unreasonable. Plus our nurse is coming back two years after a car accident and I saw the floor plans for my potential new building and got kinda psyched.

Lizzy and I are reading the Twilight series together. I finished Eclipse this weekend and am waiting for her to finish New Moon. This is the first time she's read a book first then I read it. It's fun and she is very good at not spoiling things. Liz was banned from my sister's house until she finishes because my niece is not so good at it. Lizzy is looking forward to being able to completely obsess about Edward with her cousin.

As of Friday I am on a three week vacation. September 9th is my 10 year anniversary with Alternatives and I decided to celebrate by not being there : ) After I decided not to leave all together anyway. The only plans I have is hang out with Liz, check out a new home school, center in Worcester, go to the beach one day, shop for camp and take Liz up to Vermont for camp. Should be fun.

Liz is REALLY excited about Not Back To School Camp. She went last year and had an awesome time. She's bummed some of her friends won't be there but a lot will plus all the friends she hasn't met yet.

Gotta run to pick Liz up from weaving. The fall events have begun!

Mommy's grumpy

Everybody went to the ocean today but me cause I went to work like a dummy. It's a beautiful perfect 80 degree day and there are boogie boards involved. OK whining out of the way. I'm glad everyone is having a good time. I just wish I was with them. Hopefully I'll be able to do a few days at the beach when I take vacation in September. One of my favorite things about unschooling is no back to school. Whatever Liz plans to do this fall will start in October. She's having a ball this summer with her crew. Once they go back to school I'm on vacation then it's time for Not Back to School Camp. After camp she and mom are doing a few days in Vermont then she plans on crashing for a week or two before getting into fall activities. Good times.
