When I found out that the High School was going to be my first teaching experience, I had gotten concerned. I actually went to school with Hadley, sort of anyway, she was friends with Paloma, maybe still are, I wouldn't really know. I just thought it might be weird, especially with my siblings, Elias, Julius, and Zilla being students here. The Counselors that do scheduling don't really care about any of that though.

The twins' heartbeats slow when a contraction comes, like it's squeezing them too tight to breath, but in this case, for their hearts to beat. It always pops back up to one hundred and fifty beats a minute right after though so Morgan isn't concerned over it.

When Julia decided to keep dating Isaac, I made it my personal goal in life to make her life miserable. I told on her at school if she held Isaac's hand, or went off to make out behind the locker rooms. If she was late to class, I told Mom and Dad, and when she started acting sneaky, I knew she was really up to something. Isaac's a jerk, and I thought for sure she was becoming an anorexic just to please him and become even thinner. I had my suspicions but what I really needed was solid proof, so I pretended to be sleeping on Saturday morning, and just laid in bed waiting for my opportunity to pounce. I was smug, my expression full of satisfied pride, just wait til Mom and Dad found out about this! I was gloating, watching her clean up the throw up that had missed the toilet, trying to hide what she was doing. "He's not worth it." I said as she was finishing up. "You are skinny enough, believe me."

How about some nifty gifties for Christmas? I miss Steve Carell on The Office. Tim and Bekah Grimsley got a new house, and it was requested at N99, and I also have some kids clothing that's been hanging out in my game that I thought others might like. I'm not awesome-professional clothing creator. I also had to upload clothing pictures to photbucket, and they made them ugly and pixely. Grumble. First up, 3 pairs of jammies for the boys, modeled by Jake, Monroe, and Simon: Continue reading →]]> https://retromaisie.wordpress.com/2011/12/24/ill-be-home-for-christmas/feed/ 3 retromaisie https://retromaisie.wordpress.com/2011/12/21/nearer-than-not/ https://retromaisie.wordpress.com/2011/12/21/nearer-than-not/#comments Wed, 21 Dec 2011 06:00:36 +0000 maisie http://retromaisie.wordpress.com/?p=3867 december 2017 previous update/next update Delaney Schehl (54 years), Jared (53 years), Lauren (15 years), Lizzie (2 years) narrated by Lauren Basically my parents pretty much went broke to give us this fancy Audubon Shore address, they thought it would go well for us with our college applications. The house needed updates galore, and there was never any money to put into them, and then this year, the city wanted the property. They want to fix the house up for the historical society, and just like that my parents sold it to them. I guess that Meg and Peter were the only two they really cared about for getting into college.

Colin doesn't bring much money to the table, he's just working at the gas station as he has done since I've met him. The only positive is that it's at night, so we don't have to leave Logan with any strangers. I've just gone back to work this month from maternity leave, and the only thing that made me feel better about it was that Logan would be with his Dad during the day. I've read more horror stories than I can handle of infants injured or killed from daycare providers, that I was really wary of it.

Grandma is always talking about how my Dad was such a handful as a teenager. What she really means is that he was a horrible kid. I'm not like that, I know I'm not, but sometimes it seems that people expect me to be hotheaded like he was.

The exciting part of this year, is that in January, I get to spend a semester being a Student Teacher at Jefferson High School. I think it will be a little odd, seeing that I was friends with some of the students still there. I can hardly be nervous about it though, because I have my buddy Isaiah and his drama filling up my life. Him and Elise, the ones who were talking marriage just last year, apparently had a big falling out this summer. I'll admit that I didn't keep in touch with many, a little traumatized after witnessing Abby drown. I still don't even know the full story of why Elise broke it off, I just know that I don't want to ask.
