a lot of little updates

Yesterday was a pretty good day. So I have a lot of little things to comment on.

Cranky update: I’ve had some very positive breakthrough e-mails recently. It seems that by me putting a name of stuff it has helped the girls finally talk about what’s really going on. They’ll probably be horrified that I knew all along when they said stuff like “you don’t need to know.”

Clothing drive: everything is OK. GCOH is happy to accept our donation. That’s a big relief because it would put us in a bit of a pickle if they couldn’t have taken them.

Go market rally! My investments have been soaring in the past 3-4 weeks. I’ve gained about $1000 in value on one of my investments alone. Investing in international stock is finally paying off. When the bulls start to run they run big time in emerging markets!

Homework done: If you scroll down you will see that some of the project for my Student Leadership class has been posted but mine hasn’t. I e-mailed it in last night. Glad to have that little project done. One more paper to go and my first grad class is completed!

Light Force: We set a 2004 high with 42. That’s just about where we were prior to Mike’s departure. It’s awesome that we’ve taken a step back, re-evaluated, and then returned to where we are. Even more amazing is that about half of the 14 vans kids are now coming on their own.

Mission trip: We’re making this decision on Sunday between Northern Ireland and Russia. I think I might be more nervous than the students! Going to Northern Ireland sounds “easier” from a leadership standpoint while Russia would be highly, highly stressful. Both will be fantastic opportunities for the students at Romeo.

I’m sure I could come up with some more. But today is technically a day off for me. I should really get to some of the honey-do stuff Kristen hasn’t exactly mentioned.
