It's a waiting game...

So I was waiting for my new contract, I was waiting to plan our trip, I was waiting for Brian's summer schedule and I was waiting for the kids to finish school...

1. My contract was not renewed because I am not a teacher at the school anymore...WTF? Yeah, my thoughts. I like the IGNORED facts that the shows were great successes, made a lot of money and involved 20% of the school. HMMMM...sounds ratty. My drama kids are flippin' mad and are not taking it lying down. They have a meeting scheduled to fight it tomorrow. I told them they should be heard if they have something to say. I doubt anything will change, but I feel so loved and appreciated. It's a Mr. Holland's Opus, Dead Poets Society and Dangerous Minds moment. I don't want to teach, but I loved directing...

2. Well, Brian's got his schedule and we are off to the Dells early in August. yipee. Kids are pumped. We decided we will do Disney next year. UGH...

3. Skylar graduates kindergarten on Thursday. My BABY is going into 1st grade. My sweet boy is going into 3rd. Oh my...Why? When? Where did the time go? They are awesome and exciting and challenging. They aregoing to take swimming and some camp stuff...

Oh...85 degrees on Monday and 52 degrees on Tuesday...summer? STILL WAITING!!!
