Mid-week at the end of October

It's been a crazy week.  But then again, I guess I could say that most weeks.  I don't love the crazy schedule our family has, and I don't feel being busy is a "badge" of which to be proud.  It just is what it is.  It's about doing what needs to be done, and doing it well.  That is life in my opinion.

School has been particularly interesting.  Monday there was increased police presence at our high school.  It was a little bit unnerving, but overall I knew we were safe.  We aren't exactly sure what happened in the area, but there had been a situation and the extra police were on hand just to be on the safe side.  Yesterday I got called in at the last minute for the morning (I was already scheduled for the afternoon).  It was a rush to get here, and then I ended up being in for a teacher who is in two different rooms...and not close together.  While I was in the office during the plan period, a student ran by followed by the school SRO who was chasing him.  Not something you see everyday!

We've also still had band and those responsibilities, plus we are at the end of the month nearing the end of the year so work at church is really gearing up.  I had a doctor appointment yesterday, and of course it is another full five-day work week for me.  I really need to get back to meal planning, but I just don't love that.

Andrew is taking Catherine on a college visit today.  This is the very first place she visited back in the summer of 2018.  She has loved it ever since.  Today is specifically for the nursing program, and they also have an appointment to visit the place where she would be living.  I'm anxious to hear all about it!

Just another crazy week in our lives, but I wouldn't change a thing!
