I have two new gigs I forgot to tell you about....
First, I am now one of the story time ladies at the local library. I'm in a women's club here in town, and we all must serve on a charitable committee. There were lots of choices, but when I saw the opportunity to work with kids by reading to them, I jumped on the chance. It's the perfect job for me! Today was my first read, and it was so much fun! I was nervous since I hadn't worked with kids in a while and especially since it was the preschool age. I have absolutely no experience with that age. As soon as I got there, everything started coming back to me, and I had so much fun! There was a small group today, so we all huddled in the floor and pulled puppets and books from my bag. We sang and danced and read... and laughed a lot.
The other new "job" I have is being a food lady at church. This job is so far from perfect for me, that it makes me laugh. I can't remember the last time I cooked a meal here at our house. Brad does all the cooking because he's so good at it and enjoys it. So the fact that I am in charge of food for one of our KIT teams could be the biggest goof-up in the history of food ladies! Thankfully, I don't have to do all the cooking. I (along a friend who's also new to this) am in charge of organizing meals for those that are sick, being discharged from the hospital, have had a death in the family, or just had a baby. Our KIT team rolls around every 4 weeks, so I won't have to do this except for about once a month. All I can say is..... don't get sick during my week! There's no telling what you'll end up with! :)

That is awesome! I can see you reading to all the preschoolers! You are a natural at that! :) Now the food thing I'm not so sure about that. Isn't it nice to have the time to do things like that now?
how fun to be story time lady! campbell loves going to story time. i can see you being very good at that!
Oh, this is funny.....anything with the title "lady" in it has to be special!
The job at the library is perfect for you, since you are so good with kids. Also, you are great at organizing things, so you'll be a good food lady at church. The extra bonus is that I'll get to keep Emily while you do your jobs!! K
I bet you are the best story lady! I'm so impressed with you being in the women's club - you are such an adult. :)
I'm sure you are the best story lady they have ever heard!!!!
That's wonderful...I know the kids love story time and I know they will love you! Ditto on the cooking thing..I am supposed to take food Wednesday night to a couple who just had twins at our church..I am thinking fast food!?!??!
Tell the Sorry Dr. that if Nutty-Buddy was still our coach, we would be 0-2. The cupboard is bare. Wonder why? Still won't be enough to beat us in Fayettnam big boy!! Hope you guys are doing well.
Go Hogs. Go Dores!!!
Enjoy your new gigs! You'll be a great asset.
Do you know anyone that has a condo or house they rent for Ole Miss games? We're looking for a place for the Auburn game. Most of the ones I've seen on vrbo.com, etc are already rented. If you know any places I should check, please send me an email. jsenn@troycable.net
thanks!
Are you in Junior League?!
