Journal Entry for challenge Blog - Hobbies

Hobbies was the topic for this journal entry. I am starting to get the hang of journaling and trying to be creative on the blank page. Playing around with my scanner, trying to use it, instead of taking pics of my los and journal pages. I am enjoying this journaling experience because I think it will be fun to look back in a few years and see how things have stayed the same and how things have changed.

Journal Entry for Challenge Blog - FFOTM

I have been participating in the challenges on the blog called "thisisme". This entry is about my favorite friend of the moment. I chose Lark. Take a look and see what I wrote!

Jean's Pool

Jean's pool has been one of the best things about this summer. The weather in Southern California is just not supposed to be this hot, but it is hovering around 90 degrees. So, Tuesdays and Fridays are pool days at Jean's house. Gotta love her!

I am participating in a cool blog challenge site --- thisismejournal.blogspot.com

This is my first entry for the challenge: "Make a page using IMHO"

The others are pretty cool; I feel a bit inadequate with mine, but it is a creative endeavor so this is mine!

He got the job...

okay so I was going to write about my prefered time to scrapbook, but first I have to say, "KEVIN GOT THE JOB!" Kevin has wanted to get back into high school for the last two years (since he went to middle school). My first choice has always been Millikan: it is the closest to home, good students, less problems workwise, closest to Matt's (and next year Kate's) schools, just better. But, I know I cannot be the one to tell him what to do. Well, the karma is coming my way...he got a call today...he is going to teach Earth Science to ninth graders...it's not p.e., but that is just fine and dandy for me! He gets to help coach basketball which he has missed for two years now. He is still holding a little bit in until HRS calls, but in my opinion, he got the job.

Re-entering the blogging world

Well, now it a little over 15 days until school starts! Ha! I have had a busy summer mostly with work which is what I am not supposed to do during my vacation! I have been getting back into scrapbooking and reading some really cool blogs and message boards. I am going to attempt to add my los I have from mbs to my blog so I will always have them here for a reference. Off to research adding links and such.

Attempts at Blogging

Okay so I guess I will try to customize this blog, but first a few notations. What is the allure of blogging? For me it seems to be a sort of public diary keeping. Myabe a way to communicate with friends who live out of the area, that would basically be Tiffany and Kristin, and maybe Elizabeth since I hardly ever see her anyways.

Latest news...15 days of school left, I can hardly wait; I gave my final for Long Beach City College tonight...hurray...a few weeks until summary school starts at LBCC for six weeks.

Matt is doing really well in school finishing up the school year with exciting kindergarten activities: the Greg and Steve Show in Redondo Beach, first time lunch at the cafeteria, and his first classroom speech about dinosaurs.

Kate is so funny. She says silly things, she is really a mimic of Matt!

Kevin is still playing basketball on Wednesday nights, it might be a Wednesday night ritual to blog while the kids are asleep and kevin is playing basketball.
