Blog every day in May- Day 15

Day 15- " A Day in the Life" post

On an average work day: 
6:10, 6:15, 6:19, 6:24- My alarm goes off and I hit snooze repeatedly until 6:24. Have I ever mentioned I'm not a morning person? : )
6:25-6:50- Nellie and I have a very strict wake up schedule. I get up, go the bathroom, let her out of her kennel and let her in our (fenced) backyard to go potty. While she is out there I fix my breakfast and pour her breakfast in her bowl. She comes in, inhales her food, and then runs to sit one foot away from me to watch me eat my breakfast. I then get dressed, straighten/curl/fix my hair, pack lunch if I'm taking it, give Zach a kiss bye, give Nellie a kiss bye, and I'm out the door! 

6:50-7:15ish- My drive to work. I usually take this as my quiet time when I listen to KLOVE radio station. A pretty good start to the day.

7:15-7:30- Arrive at school, prepare for the day.

7:30-8:00- Bus duty. Oh yes, I live the exciting life of a crossing guard at my school.  Not a bad gig, minus the crappy weather and cold days!

8:10-10:10- Teach 1st and 2nd grade reading groups. 

10:10-10:35- 1st grade reading/math class.

10:35-11:35- Lunch!!!

11:35-12:35-Help in a 1st grade classroom with their math class.

12:35-2:30- In sequential order, 1st-5th grade reading/math classes.

2:40-3:00- Afternoon bus duty!

3:00-4:00- 3 days of the week I tutor some of my students. On days I don't tutor I get home any time between 3:30 to 5:30!

4:30ish- I get home and usually crash on the couch with Zach and Nellie for a few minutes.

5:30-6:00ish- I start cooking supper, empty/load the dishwasher, maybe throw  a load of clothes in the washer. 
 
6:30- Supper is served! 

The rest of the night is spent watching tv while I do my workout (about 30 minutes on the elliptical and some reps with my free weights.). Then I take a shower and it's usually time for bed! 

Anywhere from 10:30-11:30- Lights out for the Scheller household! We usually fall asleep watching the Big Bang Theory of The Office!

I know we have a pretty unexciting day, but I do like routine, so it works pretty well for us!

Family room re-do featuring.... my curtains! : )

For a while now, we've planned on finally finishing our family room.  That's right, it's kind of been unfinished for the entire time we've lived there.  It was painted and decorated, just no molding and the ceiling was hideous because we (and by we, I mean Zach) took down the drop ceiling the previous owners had put up.  So, anyway, I looked at curtains and didn't really find anything I liked, so I decided I was going to make my own.  Zach and I looked at Jo-Ann's a couple times and each time we looked I liked this fabric more and more.  It was the most expensive fabric I've ever bought, but in the end, it was sooooo worth it! (*Note- I bought the fabric in January before NSM! : )) Here we are at Mama Joyce's one day after church cutting the panels.  I think we were all nervous to cut it.  It was too costly to mess up! Fast forward a couple weeks because I didn't have time, was lazy, and also scared to sew on it, and I finally just delved in an...

Bumpdate: 41 weeks!

How Far along: 41 weeks.   Baby's size: Size of a jack fruit!  Around 7.5 lbs. (I think he's going to be about 8 lbs and Zach's official guess is 9 lbs. 2 oz.  I hope he's wrong!) Weight loss/gain: 30 lbs. (So glad the weight gain is slowing down!) Sleep: I told Zach I no longer am even trying to keep track of how much I am getting up to go to the bathroom. Gender: B-O-Y Movement:  He has been back to his super active little self this week.  Best Moment of this week:  Getting to spend time at home together now that we're finished with the old house.  Also, the 3 day weekend!  We didn't sleep in, much, but we figure that's all about to end anyway! Looking Forward: Getting to meet our baby boy.  I think it will be a little weird, because I truly don't feel like I'm finished being pregnant yet.  But, alas, we pretty much have to follow Dr.'s orders. Food cravings: Still pineapple!  ...

Valentine's Weekend

Zach and I seemed to stretch out Valentine's day for the whole weekend! On Friday night we had pizza ordered in (pineapple and mushroom, my FAVORITE, Thanks honey!) Then on Saturday, Zach took me to downtown Henderson to Memories, a little antique shop, and bought me a McGuffey reader to add to my collection! After that, we went to Bed, Bath, and Beyond in Evansville and Zach bought me a back massage machine that goes in the chair! It does shiatsu massage and feel wonderful! He jokes that now he won't ever have to give me massages anymore, but that's not true! Then we went back to his house, and he opened his present from me, a balance thing that measures reloading stuff for guns! As you can guess, I don't exactly know what it is, I just said, "Pick something out unless you want some new polos." Motivates him every time! Today after church and lunch at Mama Joyce's we rushed to the west side of Evansville and went to the movies! We saw "When ...
