Summer Camp at work is in full swing, and all of the children really seem to love it. (including my own) They swim twice a day, we have really neat and educational entertainment (we had the "bug" guy this week. The tarantula was the star.) such as a petting zoo and magic show coming up and there is a special activity every day. This is all in addition to outdoor games, sports, etc.
I really enjoy my job, even though the hours are really long and it can be stressful at times. I don't think people realize how much goes into running a school. The administrator gave her notice and is leaving in a couple of weeks. I was asked to take over the position! :-) Actually, the owners told me several months ago that they wanted me to run the place (for all intents and purposes, I have been doing that anyway) and were considering terminating her employment. So, here I am. Who would have dreamed when I found the school for my boys back in September, that less than a year later I'd be running the place. Wow. God works in mysterious ways, doesn't He?
On the homefront, we (actually my husband and dad, but "we" sounds better, lol) opened the pool and the kids have been enjoying it after camp (not that they don't swim enough everyday) and on weekends.
I started teaching again last week. So, for the next 7 weeks, I will be teaching Colonial and Revolutionary America from 8-10 pm. I know the hours are crazy, but I love the material, I make the class fun for my students, and hubby and I earmark my teaching money for Santa gifts. So, we all do what we have to do, right?
I can't promise that I will be able to blog as much as I did when I was home full-time, but I will try to make a concerted effort especially for those who aren't on Facebook. :-)
Happy rest of the weekend to all!

Great to hear from you! Wonderful that you are liking the new job. No surprise that they like you so much!
Hope you and your family have lots of fun in the pool this summer!
Lisa,
How great about the job! Did you accept it? I hope there'a huge pay raise!!
Hi Charlotte! Good to "hear" from you. I hope you and your family are well. I did accept the job, but, unfortunately, I don't think there will be a huge pay raise. I'm hoping for a few more dollars an hour and maybe something extra off of my daughter's tuition. I'll keep you posted! :-)
That is awesome Lisa!! Congrats on the promotion! :) God bless you!
Wow, LIsa, that's amazing! Who would have thought, things would have happened so fast! I'm glad you like your new job, I'm sure you're great at it.
