Wow! I can't believe it has been over a month since I last posted anything! i have been keeping myself busy to say the least. I have been going between decorating the new house and teaching an enrichment program at Lively. I have had a lot of fun doing both. The theme for the enrichement program was Medival Knights and Castles. My class talked about chivalry, which I am determined is NOT dead! They painted thier own shields and came up with a code of honor and made swords. The best part was making a big castle out of boxes brought in by the kids. The teachers jokingly called it the "Dumpster Castle." The kids really enjoyed building onto what the previous class had done. The castle even had a working drawbridge. We had other activities like poetry groups every morning and the kids got to share their favorite poems on Thursdays. All in all I really liked working with the kids and there wasn't stress in teaching them, which I wish it was like that all year round.
I have had lots of fun decorating my house with Kara. Kara is starting to learn not to leave me for to long because I will become bored and head for the stores. There is not much to do besides read and write when you don't have internet or a T.V. I go to the library about once a week to check mail and facebook. We are almost finished with decorating the house. Hopefully we will have a housewarming party in the middle of July. Keep your fingers crossed!
I have had fun going out and hanging out with friends though. I have had some interesting nights. You learn a lot about people when you are hanging out throwing a few cold beers back. It's great though when you go into a night thinking one way and come out thinking quite another. I can't wait for more get togethers...
I am excited to see what the rest of the summer has in store. Hopefully I will keep myself busy and not spend to much money....awwww who am I kidding? Maybe some traveling to San Antonio to visit the new addition to the Danze family, or maybe a road trip anywhere. I would like to go to a few Ranger games. I also need to call a few friends I rarely get to talk to. Hopefully I can get some of this stuff done, we will see. If you have any ideas to beat the boredom, let me know with a commnet.
