Hmmm

Well, not much changing here. Mark worked for his first time yesterday, subbing in Paso. He also found out Paso school district is hiring for a math teacher for k-5th grade, so he's going to apply for that. That would be a cool job, but subbing promises to be pretty regular. He was told by the county office that he would be able to work everyday if he wanted to. Him subbing is nice though because he can arrange to not work on certain days if we have plans or so I can go with D on more fieldtrips. I'm looking into joining a health club in Morro Bay, it's cheaper than just taking one class because I can take different classes and have use of the machines. Also, they have child care so I can take Jon in with me if Mark is working. I'm going to try the free three day pass next week and then see how it goes. They have a Tai Chi class and Yoga classes in the morning, so I could go over there right after dropping D off at school. I'd rather work out in the morning and have energy throughout the day. Mark is playing basketball two nights a week with his friend, and I hope that's going to help him be fit and energized. Jon is just a little ball of energy, he is constantly jumping and spinning, when he's not sleeping that is. It's funny watching him spin around and stomp his feet, he's adorable. Darien is now fully potty trained and has had two nights so far, in a row, with no diaper and no accidents. It's funny, he used to tell me he had to pee, like he's asking permission or something, but now he just runs in there and takes care of it himself. He tried to pee standing up sometimes and makes a mess, but that's okay. It's all part of learning. Tomorrow we're all going to Paso to buy D's halloween costume then to the Atascadero zoo, with the grandparents also :) D still loves his school and asks to go every day, which I have to explain school is closed on some days LOL.

Fieldtrip

Today Darien had his first field trip at school. I went along, transporting a teacher and two other students. We went into SLO to see the Miami Ballet, it was really neat and all the kids did great. There's a boy named Anthony that Darien has become very close with and I'm told they often play together and buddy around. That makes me happy to see Darien having friends and enjoying his school time. Next week is school pictures for D, which will be his first and will be fun. For Jon, we're thinking of joining a mommy and me type class held in Morro Bay. Another Mom from New Dawn has a daughter the same age as Jon and was thinking of going. I'd like to get some one on one time with Jon, for brain development and social development. I am also hoping to take a Tai Chi class, I'd really enjoy that time to excerise and meditate, and simply do something active by myself. I've been walking D to school and that's been making me feel really great. It's a nice way to wake up and get energized in the morning.

WooHoo for having energy and feeling good :)
