Howdy!

Anna speaking. :)

Since all the cool kids are doing it, we now have a blog too. Mostly, it's just because I'm so bad at actually letting you all know what's going on in our lives.

What's new with us? I have a countdown.
It's officially:
13 days until spring break
7 weeks until student teaching is over
9 weeks until I graduate and have to find a job!

Student teaching is quite an experience. It's challenging, beyond exhausting (I don't think I've ever been so busy in my life!), and a lot of fun. I'm excited to have my own classroom and my own students. It's a pretty good feeling to know that you're where you're supposed to be. Now to graduate find a job...

I guess I'm hoping to be able to live in southern Indiana somewhere (as I'm sure you all already know). Music teaching jobs aren't exactly in abundance down there, and there are quite a few people looking for education jobs right now. The story of the times, huh? I may end up just subbing the first year (yahoo!) or until I can get a real job.

In other news, Hehoff was sleeping and just kicked Howie really hard. When I asked him what he was doing, he said, "Trying to get away from a poisonous snake!" haha.

OK, back to more relevant stuff. We did hear about a Salvation Army apartment complex in Columbus, IN that is looking for an apartment manager. They don't pay a lot-only $100/month, but if we did that, we'd get free rent in a nice 2 bedroom apartment. Or so I hear. We'd have to collect rent from all of the tenants once a month and do basic maintenance. Only things like changing light bulbs and unclogging toilets. Excellent. But basically, I don't know much about this at all, even whether or not we'd be able to take the zoo with us. Just something we're thinking about.

This is the first weekend in a long time I've been able to relax, and it's been wonderful! I think I will do a bit more of that before I get back to homework. :)

Love you and miss you all!
