Summer is Here!

School is finally out. We missed 9 days of school. We added 20 minutes to the day beginning in March to make up 3 days and the rest we painfully made up.  I was sad to see this group go, but I could send them knowing they were prepared.  I will miss this group they were very fun and for the most part always pleasant.
So, I am continuing to walk each weekday.  I have upped my time to 40 minutes,  I don't notice a lot of difference.  I am trying to walk outside, I enjoy the breeze, but I do get hot.  I have learned that I really don't enjoy the sweating, or the actual exercising part of getting healthy.  Speaking of getting healthy, I go for another 3 month check up with my regular doctor today.  I hope he has a good report for me.
Monday I went and volunteered, Tuesday I had a home health type visit for this sister study I joined when my sister got cancer.  Then I got cancer as well, which shifted me into another study of sisters of women with cancer who got cancer.  I got to do things such as collect toenail clippings, dust samples (not hard!), urine samples, measurements, blood pressure, give blood, and get weighed.  It was laborious.
I have so many projects that I will be working on this summer, just to name a few:  my sister's quilt, sorority scrapbook (for last year), sorority yearbook(for next year), organizing units for school, and just sewing/quilting in general.  I am always doing something, but I don't seem to stay focused and on task.  Hmm!  Maybe that is why kindergarten is so natural feeling!
I am about halfway through organizing my Chicka Chicka Boom Boom unit.  I plan to use it during the first 5 weeks of school.  Along with it I think I will fit in a new unit King/Queen for a day, then for good measure I will add Brown Bear Brown Bear activities, just to add a little color!
I have to get ready for the doctor.
Toodles!
