A visit to the ER and back to work

This past weekend as Matthew went on his first camping trip out of state with the Boy Scouts, we headed up to Taos to visit grandma T and grandpa R. My Kevin decided he wanted to visit the local hospitals ER, so he had a massive back spasm, which numbed/tingly his arms/hands. They did not find anything else wrong, gave him some pain killers and sent him home. Talk about a stressful weekend, one son out of state (just got off his boot after breaking his ankle 8 weeks ago) and one in so much pain, laying in a hospital bed. ugh!

Both Emily and Matthew are registered for school. They got the classes they wanted. Both with be in new schools, Emily will go to the same high school just a whole new building as a senior. Matthew will be headed to middle school, his first year (6th  grade).

I started work this past Tuesday and am depressed. I am back in Special Ed. I know 3 of the kids returning and their parents make things hard for the kids and teachers. I really liked working in kinder general ed. this summer. Its a big difference.


Even this post is depressing with no pictures so here is one of the cranes from the Bosque Del Apache.

They seem happy just to find a spot to land.

Emily

Emily got her drivers permit last week, so now she will be driving me around. This week she is camping in CO. Here is praying that she has a blast and is safe.

I wish I had a cramera I have a lot of sewing I would like to show you. Oh well, next time.

Take care,

Back at work

I have been at work for 2 weeks and I am enjoying it. It is very, very busy and completely different from Special Ed. I come home exhausted, but grateful. Our school is still under construction (it's a mess) but nice to only have a small amount of students.

I have been sewing for myself. I successfully made me a wearable top. No camera, so, no picture. I have also been sewing doll clothes. Hopefully I can get a Etsy shop up and going, soon.

Matthew is still on the mend from breaking his ankle. Em is taking drivers ed. Don't know when she grew up. She will be a senior this year (then off to college) :(  The older two only have a month at home before they leave back to NMSU.

Time is flying by, too quickly.

All quite here

I can't believe that it is two week since last sewing club and I have nothing to take this time. No sewing for the BH this time around. I have been sewing, but on personal goal. More to come, also a lot of changes for this little old blog.

Prayers to all around the fires in and out of our state.

So stay tuned.

Take care,
