on the road again

Sorry for the lack of pics...a lot of mine came back fuzzy and I'm yet to get Mr Fix-It's to post. This weekend we are headed south for the wedding of Mr. Fix-It's college roomate. I'm having a delimma trying to decide what to wear...i think I'm settling on a dress from Ann Taylor Loft...no time to post pics of that either...gotta get my heiny moving so I can hit the road!

What are you ladies up to this weekend?

Weekend Plans

I'm about to hit the road...I have a super fun weekend ahead of me!


My first stop is Macon for the 81st Georgia FFA Convention! FFA is a youth organization that teaches students leadership skiils and career skills relating to agriscience. I taught agriculture last year and am going back into the classroom again (Lord willing) in the fall. I'm so excited to see my college friends from across the state that I don't get to see as much anymore! Everytime I go to convention I still feel as excited as I did the first time I went in 9th grade!

Friday afternoon after I judge a speaking event at convention I'm hopping back in the silver bullet and treking to the ATL to catch a flight to spend the weekend with Mr. Fix-It in Baltimore! We're going to the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall, the Rocky steps, Love Park and of course we've gotta have cheesesteak! I'm so excited and can't wait to post pics!

Have a fun weekend everybody!

Interview

I think my interview today went well. I did have one answer that I wish I could take back but overall I felt like I represented myself well. I really liked the principal and think he would be a great person to work for. They are suppossed to narrow the field to two candidates and then those two candidates will be interviewed a second time. I'm a little concerned about the possibility of a second interview. They were pretty thorough in this one and I just can't imagine what else they want to know!

I've been blogging hit or miss for a while...I really enjoy it because it gives me a space to get my thoughts out and I can get advice from people who are totally removed from my situations. Plus, everyone is just so darn cute and friendly :)

Coming out of hibernation

So, I took an unexpected leave from blogging. School was crazy and I just needed to focus. But I'm back with good news...I have a job interview today! It's with a school that is literally 5 mins from my house. It's in the same system I taught last year but is a high school position....my interview is at 1:30 - I'd appreciate the prayers! Hopefully I will return later today with good news!

Baltimore Bound!

This weekend I am going to visit Mr. Fix-It in Baltimore! Anyone ever visited the city> Suggesstions on where to go? I think we are going to go to the U.S.S Constellation, Ft. McHenry and the National Aquarium...any other ideas?

Jelly Legs

I. Can't. Move.

Since the weather has been so glorious over the past few days - 70 degrees in february, I'll take it!- I have decided to get outside and get active. And by get active I mean jog two miles. Did I mention I haven't really jogged or exercised since probably October? Unless running to the kitchen for another piece of cake counts...

I have however slept quite soundly the past few nights.

We belong in the Zoo!

What a wonderful weekend! Mr. Fix-It was home this weekend! Friday night we had dinner with his parents and then went shopping and out for drinks. Saturday morning Mr. Fix-It endeared himself to me...we went to the zoo! I have lived my whole life no more than 2 hrs from the ATL and had never been to Zoo Atlanta. The weather was BEAUTIFUL and it was a great day to be outside. The only bummer...my battery in my camera was dead so no pics :( But we got to see the new baby pandas and fun critters like meerkats, flamingos, and oranguntans, which might have just been my favorite. They came up to the window and were watching the visitors watching them :) The lion was very vocal that day and ran a close second as my fave!

After we left the zoo we went to the cyclorama, which depicts the Battle of Atlanta. Mr. Fix-It had never been which I found hard to believe because he is a HUGE civil war buff.

That afternoon we met my BFF and took her sweet pup Izzy to the park for awhile and then went to dinner. Such a fun day!

Sunday we went to church and just chilled with his family. I had gone to church with my parents for the past 2 weekends so it was good to get back to our church and worship together. All in all a great, although too short, weekend!
