My two daughters

They keep me busy. I didn't think they would, or how much I would really enjoy driving them around. But I do. And I have to face reality, that they are not the kind to just sit around and play in the house. Abby has joined band, although not thrilled with her choice, she is playing the clarinet. Becky is in cheerleading. Both want to also join girlscouts, which I am thrilled about, since I was a girlscout. I am very proud of both! Both are doing well in school, and tomorrow, 10/15/08 Abby will be 10.

She has reminded me of how old she will be for the past month. I am surprised how time flies. It seems like only yesterday we were taking Abby in for her first open heart surgery. The obstacles this child has faced and perservered!

We still don't have their Halloween costumes picked out, and it is getting chillier where we are. I don't know about other moms, but my girls want to be the super hero instead of a princess. I guess they are tired of pink and all the frilly stuff that goes with being a princess.

That's all for now.
Thanks for reading.

My big decision

I don't know what I am going to do. I wanted to write this down, rather type. I am right in the middle of a vendor fair, folding laundry, and wracked with a decision of what to do about a job! I have plenty of offers. I have home health nurse aps on my piano waiting to be filled out. I have one home health agency ready to hire me, and I have the school wanting me to fill out an app. Now there is no guarentee that I will get the school job, especially when in Illinois you have to have a certificate 73. Without that, the pay is not that great! It is above minimum wage. Good! I went to college a long time for my degree! I am now thinking of getting my certificate, but it will be over 3,000 dollars to do it. The benefits of being a school nurse are of course what ever benefits the district has to offer. What to do....
I will let you know what I decide. Until then, have a great week!
