Getting back to the basics

So, I have decided it's time to get back to the basics. I have deleted all of my excess blogs... I had 2 that were private and one that was a public one for the business stuff that never took off. I have also decided this year is going to be a pivital part of my life. The para pro assessment is happening this summer, and then we will go from there.

Kenzie will be in 3rd grade next year it is time for me to take charge of our lives!

Maddie will be in kindergarten so she needs things taken care of prior to going into that grade.

it is just time for things around here to change... for the better..

my goals are:

get my para pro done
get a job as an instructional assistant for the school board
take human anatomy and physiology lecture and lab so i can then move on to the next set of goals

pay for and take the 15 month course to get my coding degree
then get a job working in a hospital as a coder.

can i really do all of this in the next 2 years, i am goign to be brave and say yes i can! i am my mother's child and i know i can if i set my mind to it.

i'll try and keep updated here as often as possible.

love, peace and chicken grease (yes, those were the words of my little brother)

The importance of connections

 Many times, we don't take the opportunity in life to think about connections. Much like the way legos connect to erect the building or vehicle you are trying to create, without connecting pieces, our lives would fall apart. It's not often that we take time to reflect on those connections in meaningful ways. If I am honest, when we moved from Indiana back to Florida, we didn't appreciate the connections we had and so as I look back I wonder what life would have been like if we'd not only appreciated those connections, but supported them in meaningful ways.  Since moving to Greenville, not only have we made connections, but we've made it a part of life to connect with those people we've met that have become more like family than friends. We took the time to find a church that really believes in connecting with their people and not in a way that makes the patrons of the church feel like they are just a player in the game of chess and that player's job is to be

Workout #27

So, here's the challenge. And above, you can see my entry. Kenzie had done crosswords or circle a words (I can't remember) with Gigi and I snapped a pic of her doing it. I absolutely love the design of the sketch we were supposed to use for this lo. It allows for a simple, yet stunning layout. It allows room for journaling as you can see that I added as well as plenty of negative space! And the breakdown goes like this, picture was taken from my collection, background paper was from k and company the best of k and company pad, the circles were literally just picked out of my scrap box. I didn't even look at the papers, i just did a random pick. the lettering was taken from an old sheet of alphas i had and I think they worked out great!!! Simple yet Stunning! Thank you Scrap Fit for the challenge.
