Back in Oregon...

Man it's been a long time again! I am back in Oregon and been here for about a week now! It's everything I remember and more.... meaning DRAMA! Haha...

It is good to be back though, but I miss the open spaces in Southern Idaho- and living in the country! I don't miss the ghetto of Caldwell however!

I got my keys to my new classroom last Wednesday! I think it is about as big as my old classroom, maybe a tad smaller. But... it has bathrooms! It is a REALLY old school and I have one bathroom on one side, and the bathroom on the other side is shared with the classroom next door. I am on the end of the building, that's why I don't have to share the one side. I have a tv, am getting a document camera and projector, and a flat screen monitor for my computer which saves desk space! Take that Caldwell SD! It's called technology which I have desperately missed!

I had to be a waitress last night for a fundraising dinner at church. That was a fun experience! I fortunately bypassed the food service industry on my way to a degree-seeking job.

I played in a softball game on Friday night. I hadn't practiced or anything and did fine out in the field, but hitting was a different story. I am in desperate need of some batting practice tomorrow night. I flew out 2x! Our hoser of a pitcher tried to tell me what to do! The nerve! He told me to HOLD THE BALL when I was on 2nd base! I got the lead runner out 2x and turned to 1st for the double. She missed the ball once and the second time she was too slow to step to the base (she didn't have the sense to stay on her base after they threw me the ball). The pitcher said no harm done and hold the ball and I told him to do his own job and let me do mine. If I get the lead runner out on my base I WILL turn to get the double, especially if there is a girl running to 1st.

Alright, enough information for tonight. We'll see if I keep this up or not. It was mainly to keep in touch with my peeps from OR while I was in ID, but now I am here! I can tell them stories in person!
