Newsworthy

Ok, some big happenings here in Prosemonkey-land ...

1) I GOT THE GRANT!!!
Almost $70k to refurbish my entire library. I'm very happy for our students and a little overwhelmed by the amount of work that I have to do during the renovation process. Oh well. I asked for it. I'll have before and after pictures for you as we go along.

2) I GOT PRE-APPROVED FOR A MORTGAGE!!!!
Holy crap. This is the last thing I expected to happen. I may have even found a suitable (town)house to buy. We're going to look at several tomorrow.

3) GOING TO IRL IN RICHMOND IN JUNE!!!
WOOO!! Heh, we had such fun last year, I can't wait!

4) HAVEN'T HAD A NERVOUS BREAKDOWN YET!!!
Yeah, a LOT is happening in my personal and professional life but I'm doing my best to cope. I may, however, kill my children soon. (Obligatory Mother's Day Post coming later)

Breathing deeply because it would be easy to drown. Gonna jump in the shower and start my day of cleaning, laundry, shopping and visiting my mom. Sounds, ummmm ... ick.
