Day 27 #100daysofhappiness
I was happy for an easy day at work. Teaching 4K wasn't too bad. They are easier in most ways than 5th grade! Anyway, I was happy for the hours and a fairly easy day.

Day 26 #100daysofhappiness
What made me really happy today was getting a letter in the mail letting us know that Ryan got accepted into Walden Middle school! I was over the moon, jumping up and down excited. Ryan...not as much. I'm sure he was happy, but he was in the middle of reading a book and gave me the "whatever" look. But I'm very happy! It's a huge relief for me. This whole middle school business was nerve-wrecking. Not too many options and most of them I didn't like. Walden was definitely the best and I hope it will be a good fit for him. If anything I hope it helps make him more responsible. So yay for middle school acceptance!
Day 25 #100daysofhappiness
I keep forgetting to do this each night.
Day 25: Taking Lucy to school and seeing the excitement and joy on their faces when they see her. It was the first time in almost a month I was able to bring Lucy to school because I've been working so much. But seeing the look on the children's faces and the joy in Lucy makes up for it. They adore her, and Lucy loves being there too! So glad I was able to bring her yesterday.

Day 24 #100daysofhappiness
Day 24: Getting home safely in a snow storm! Yet another snow storm this winter (will it EVER end???). Getting 4-7 inches of snow throughout the day today, and driving home in it is certainly not fun. Thankfully I live only a mile from work/school, so it wasn't too far, but I'm still very happy to have gotten home safely in a winter storm.
Day 23 #100daysofhappiness
Day 23: hot soup. I was still sick so a wonderful bowl of hot soup and some bakery bread made me happy!

Day 22 #100daysofhappiness
Today having a wonderful, loving husband made me so happy. He not only got me Nyquil yesterday, but he ran out to get me tissues with lotion today. He made lunch and dinner for the kids and took care of me. Even let me take a nap. I'm so thankful and happy to be married to him. :)
Day 21 #100daysofhappiness
Valentine's day....and while my husband makes me very happy, on day 21 I was very happy for Nyquil! Sick as a dog (are dogs really that sick?) and all I wanted was a good night sleep. So much for a romantic Valentine's day, but it's all good.

Day 20 #100daysofhappiness
Today was a tough day. I was tired, not feeling well, sore throat, etc, etc. However, I did enjoy an hour with Kyle at the school dance tonight. It made me happy to see him having fun with his friends, dancing to the music. So Day 20 is the school dance with Kyle.
Sorry this is short...as previously mentioned...not feeling well :(

Day 19 #100daysofhappiness
Today I'm happy for job stability! Two weeks ago, I didn't think I'd work much. Because I will only sub at one school, I am rather limited to subbing. I figured I'd work maybe once a week if I was lucky. But a few weeks ago, when I first got the job and finally got my sub # and all that, I wasn't getting any jobs in the system. I even called the person in charge because I was concerned my website wasn't working. But I didn't need to worry long. Last week I worked 4 days, and this week is 3 days so far. Seems I definitely have some job security! I'm very happy for the work.

Day 18 #100daysofhappiness
Day 18 is pretty simple: I'm happy that I don't have any preteen girls!
I had to sub today for Ryan's class today. While they are a good class, lots of good kids, rather chatty, but overall good kids, there is some preteen girl drama going on! whew! All I can say about this is I'm so happy I have boys :) That made me very happy today.
