Life is getting to be more like regular life here. On Friday Kristen and I went to the lake and it was so nice and warm and not crowded and I even ended up getting burnt! Then we spent the day in Springfield-I approve of their mall. They have the German candies I love!! Plus every other store I love (besides Gap). We spent two days looking for postcards-those things are hard to come by! Finally found some.
Best news in a long time: I officially have my Missouri credentials so I officially have a teaching job for real for real! Got my class list and everything. Now I am certifiably excited!
Tomorrow= church, lunch with a kind family, VBS intro.
Only one more week until I can get into my classroom! Wish I had my parents here to help me do all that hard work!
Going to go to sleep to the sound of a summer storm. It was beautiful earlier-75 degrees raining, lightning that lit the sky up as bright as daylight and thunder. Storms are so much less scary when it's warm out! ;o)
