spring break...

i left jackson this morning, only 2 minutes late, 7:02 a.m. i was quite pleased with myself, i even made good time so i stopped by the outlet mall in Lebanon to do some quick shopping, which turned into a hour long stop split between an awesome bookstore and the gap outlet-i only spent like 7 bucks in there too...pretty impressive for me in a gap outlet because usually it's the only place that i can find jeans that fit and they are cheaper...so yay for not spending lots of money there!! then i headed on up to crossivlle and got here just after noon and mama jo and i went out to lunch and then to the outlet "mall" and walked for a little bit, didn't find anything though...and that pretty much leads me to this...i am sitting in my grandmother's front bedroom on her computer...and it feels great! i absolutely love this place up here and took full advantage to a great evening. i spent about an hour and a half in my hammock on the back deck watching the sun slowly set and read harry potter. it is so peaceful up here and i absolutely cannot wait to move towards this area-hopefully in may-

...some plans for spring break
*heading to knoxville/gatilinburg/pigeon forge tomorrow to do some roaming/shopping with mama jo, should be a fun and interesting day!!
*then on tuesday heading to the dear camp for the first time in a while to get some dirt for the wedding, don't ask! then i will probably drop by the cemetery to see Papa, haven't gone by to see him in a LONG time...
*heading to murfreesboro on wednesday morning. i plan on looking at 6-7 different apartment complexes and possibly go talk to some places about summer job opportunities. i was going to go pass out my resume to different schools in rutherford county, but turns out it's their spring break this week as well...but the amazing thing is that they are having a job fair in april that i will actually be able to come to-how awesome is that!
*i get to spend some quality time with danielle towards the end of the week-including going to church with her on wednesday night, excited!
*saturday i get to see 2 more of my favorites when we head to chatt for a wedding shower for jenny, so that's even more exciting.
*somewhere in between all this awesomeness i have to plan some lessons for next week, as well as grade a stack of papers-blah! the wonders of becoming a teacher, spring break isn't really a break with a stack of papers to grade and lesson plans to write, i guess i should get used to it!

so send up some prayers for not only safe travel but also for some doors to open up here in middle tennessee for me and eventually drewby! also send up some for him, he is still sick with bronchitis and still sounds like a sad frog...love you drewby!!

got to go take a shower, then it's off to bed for me, another early morning for me in the a.m.
good night all
