Well this is chaotic

I finished up the big fundraiser of the year.

I could seriously beat the person who decided that the biggest fundraiser of the year should have been scheduled the DAY BEFORE EASTER! I was not part of it…..but seriously who does that?

However, everyone who attended said it was the most exciting one they’ve been to. Our fundraising team hit it out of the park and had it not been the DAY BEFORE EASTER we would have brought in so much more money. We did just as much as they did last year so I definitely call that a win.

Thursday I hand over my big fundraising binders to the girls on my team and end my time on the board of directors of the preschool. They really made this place bearable. It took me quite awhile to feel like I fit in but not I feel like I do. I’ll miss them. I’m really going to miss Caroline’s teachers. I can’t thank them enough for having helped get her the therapy she needs. It will help out so much when we get down to Portland and are able to get her registered for kindergarten.

I’ve got about 15 boxes packed. I’d say that’s about half. I may leave the rest for the movers. We’ll see. I have to have something to do to help me feel like I’m helping this transfer move along. I hate just sitting and waiting.

But of course my spring quarter started today. If I were every other person I’d focus on school but I’m not. I’ve got to make things crazy and chaotic. As a great song says, “I wanna let go but there’s comfort in the panic.” It makes me feel in control.

First day as a teaching assistant has gone quite nicely. I can’t wait to get to meet my students since the class is divided between the 4 TAs I should have the chance to really get to know them  and help guide them throughout this quarter.

I still can’t get over this opportunity! <3

Well it’s more of the same but I have so much going on I haven’t had much time to actually contemplate other things. I hope all is well with you all.
