That's why all children should be born girls

my apt. is now gorgeous, and it will only become even more gorgeous next week with the addition of a new table/chairs and bedspread! yay! and after a few more trips to crate and barrel, it will be complete! That will be sooo nice, because finally I will be out of "moving mode" and hopefully all my stuff will have a home. (there are lots of plastic tubs still, because there's no place to put all of my junk!)

Tomorrow is the first day in my new 5th grade class! And the teacher (who I'm not sure what to call yet... melanie or miss scanlon?) seems so nice and helpful! Although she has teaching (a full time job), another second job, and she's getting her masters. So she's crazy busy, and intimidatingly organized. (I possibly just made up a word there...)
