The "T" timeline

So this week already has been really busy...
We (well JT) finally purchased a membership for us to the local club. And we took full advantage of the pool this weekend as the temperatures soared. The pool is great... it has zero entry and a play mushroom for the girls and two big slides for the boy. At first we were fearful that he would not go down the slides by himself... but he totally surprised us when he went down all by himself and then again, and again, and well again. We took this as a great opportunity to give him a long leash of independence. ( So proud of My Boy). And the girls, well swimming is just second nature ( much like Jack) they immediately got down on their bellies and started copying others. Submerging, blowing bubbles and Kicking... even got a few arm movements. (which reminds me I must sign them up for lessons this summer!)

This week is officially The Boys last week of school... Very sad but a lot of the neighborhood kids will be around this summer and that should ( key word should) keep him busy. I took him this week for his Kindergarten screening ( at Auntie Katie's school) and he is very excited about the new school.

I have also been really busy with the swim league I run in the summer. Including scheduling meets, sorting thousands ribbons and organizing in general. On top of that while I was perusing the Internet (an environmental education site I have bookmarked) I found a job posting that seemed really interesting to me... kind of my life long dream (thanks to Mrs. Hogg) The job is working for the Swanee Mountain Preserve as the Watershed Project Manager. My job is basically creating a watershed curriculum, teaching the instructors/naturalists, and presenting the program to the local schools. Science Rules! It is a great opportunity one that allows me to also work from home and will look good on my resume. I have already interviewed for the position and got a call back on Monday to go in for a review of my application and be drug tested... (still not sure if I got the job as they can not tell me until the results from the drug test come back.) So for all my teacher friends if you have any cool watershed lessons send them my way....

Have a great week!
