I cannot believe it is December. Where did the year go? I took 2 weeks from work (1 for vacation, 1 for a conference). Not really 2 weeks off but 2 weeks away from the office. My younger brother and his family came into town and we really enjoyed their visit for the first week. Then I attended a conference in Nashville from the US Dept of Education for the second week.
Rachel was a trooper being by herself with all the children for a full work week. Her bus driving schedule changed that same week and she survived it all. She is a very resilient person and I truly appreciate what she does.
Christmas lights are up and we just put up the tree. Paisley, Ayden and Kaleb took care of the interior and Zachary took care of the outside. Everything looks great and I did not have to do much but offer encouragement and suggestions. I wish everything worked this easy.
Got back to work and was hit from all side about this, that and the other thing. Welcome back to work Chris!! :-) A couple people are retiring from JCCC (not in my office), which could have a positive affect on the future. Will wait and see how these things unfold.
Now off to home to be with the 4 youngest at a school activity. Rachel will be at a church function. The teenagers can fend for themselves.
