We got the move from Salem to Springfield out of the way. Now, we wait to move into our house. Everything has been pretty hectic with packing up our apartment, then less than halfway unpacking in our temporary living space in Springfield. On top of that, it's Ramadan and I'm fasting. Craig and I can now confirm that it's food that makes me the most happy in life. It's always a struggle, but there are so many reasons I love it.
The past few days have been filled with picking out wood floors, appliances, and cleaning my new classroom. I will post pictures next week, but without seeing them... it's pretty bad. When I first went in on Monday the room looked pretty good. Then I started opening cabinets. I can't believe how many ice cream containers I have retrieved and cleaned. Many we are recycling, but I had to clean them all! I could have just thrown them away, but there were so many I couldn't handle that on my conscious. Craig has been awesome with helping me out. He really deserves a medal. I have absolutely no idea why he likes helping me clean up my art rooms. This is the second time, and it's much worse than last year. Luckily, we won't be doing it next summer. There are many things that are going to be awesome about being at Aurora. 1. I get a MacBook Air! Pretty awesome, but kinda scary. I don't want to drop it for sure. 2. My supplies budget is 5 times larger than where I was last year! I keep thinking of things we should buy, and then while we're cleaning, I'll find it! So, I have to really think about a shopping list, which is not a bad situation to be in. Although we still have a lot of work to do, I can see it all coming together.
Tomorrow, Craig and I will be heading down to Branson to meet my mom and Darren. We're going on a weekend trip to Roaring River to visit my Uncle Mike and Mary. It will be fun to show Craig where I grew up going for my family vacations. On Saturday, we'll visit Eureka Springs. Another great place to introduce Craig to.
