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!

Valentine's Day and the Quickest Weekend Ever

Valentine's morning I treated myself to a heart-shaped chicken biscuit from Chick-fil-a. They were BOGO free AND I got a survey for a free chicken sandwich. That in and of itself made my day! : ) Friday evening Zach and I tried to go out for Valentine's Day. We thought we were early enough to beat the rush, but it turned out we weren't. We ended up going back home with a quick stop through Donut Bank to get dessert and then we had a DiGiorno pizza and watched the Olympics. Can you feel the romance? Haha. Yummy Whoopie Pie! My Valentine! Saturday morning began gloriously at 9:20 a.m. It seems like it's been forever since I slept that late, but it was wonderful! I met my friend, Jennifer, and he

Christmas Eve

Our Christmas festivities started with Zach's family on Christmas Eve! We opened presents and ate! I'll let the pictures do most of the talking! As you can see, Christmas is so more magical when there are little ones to spoil! : ) Mrs. Claus house shoes from Nana and Poppy! Mmmmm, paper! We got Zach's dad a long magnet on wheels. We hope he liked it!! Haha, it was one of those gifts that was more of a necessity I think! She was excited! We are glad she liked it! We got Zach's mom a record player that is a 5-in-1 system! Isaiah's sweater we got him! Its pockets are in the shape of monkey hands too, so I couldn't resist how cute it was! He is a cute little monkey too! Book set from us! Love If You Give A Mouse.... series! He is saying. "Ohhh, paper! I love that!" Make-up set from us! He looooved the paper! Isaiah opening his Leap Frog laptop from us! He lik

Ten on Thursday

1. Zach is on Spring Break this week! Even if it is just from his one class, we still enjoyed it! I actually got to have him with me all last night! 2. I am almost done with my first week in third grade. So far, so good! The kids seem to really like me and I'm becoming rather fond of them as well! 3. I was working out last night and accidentally kicked Nellie in the side of her head. She is okay, but Zach may still be dying of laughter! I felt awful and was trying to pick her up as she was trying to scurry away from me. She must have thought I did it intentionally! Poor baby! She got lots of hugs and kisses after that though! 4. We have kept our sink free of dirty dishes for over a week now! This may not sound like such a feat, but trust me, when you don't have a dishwasher, it is! 5. Tomorrow is the "Spring Fling" carnival at my school. I am going to help set it up after school, which should be fun! 6. Warrick County School Corporation announced this past week that t
