Aunt Dietz

Do you have a blog????

or

Do you just hang out in ours????

BE DEPENDABLE!!!!

There is a gross lack of responsibility, dependability, and accountability in our society right now.
I guess I have so much faith that people will follow through (because that is what I do), that when they don't, it is such a let down. And then I feel out of control, because 5 people just don't show up for Primary, and don't bother to get subs, and I've got 30 plus children that need to be taught the gospel waiting patiently (and some not so patiently) to be taught. And then I have grandparents, (whose grand kids aren't in our ward, but attend every week) are constantly calling the Bishop or his councilors complaining about something in Primary (might I add, that this is the same grandparent who refused a calling as one of my councilors, because I was the president.) People!!

On the other hand, we had a small victory for Brennen and Primary. He actually went to class (we just called his nursery teachers to be the Sunbeam teachers), and was good. Sharing time was another story, but it'll get there..

I'm taking an ED-Technology class. For the most part, I think it will be pretty easy in the applications portion. But I am such a perfectionist when it comes to projects, and how I conceive the projects should look like. I still have one out of the four assignments assigned this week, to do by Wednesday.

I'm also working on a project for the McCall Ward's Young Women, that I'm trying to get done by Tuesday night. Crystal Nay lives up there, and is in the Young Women's. I had just done a large vinyl saying on Heather's bedroom wall, and asked if I would do Princess-Daughter of a Heavenly King boards for their New Beginnings. And since Aimee wants mom and I to skip school and go to the ice sculptor carnival in McCall on Wednesday, it would save someone a trip up there to deliver them!!!

3 Half Days in 1 Week!! What were they thinking?

This has been a very weird school week. Monday and Tuesday were full days, and Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday we only had two periods each day. The rest of the day was teacher work day. We, the Para's, are only supposed to work the hours the kids are at school. But since this was a last minute schedule change, we were told by the district office we had to work, but our building administrator told us to get done what our teacher asked us to do, and then we could leave. But because i have so much Comp time from last year, I worked the full day Wednesday, Volunteered at Ash's school Thursday, and worked 2 hours on Friday, and then went out to lunch with my friends.

At Ash's school, as part of their tution, we are to volunteer 10 hours in the school year. It's been hard to get it done this year. With the kind of students that are in the class I work in, we always need to have two adults in there for safety reasons. I made the teacher two new snack bags that took six hours to make, and spent 3 hours on Thursday helping with the Kindergarten, first and second grade classes.

Madam PP wants to be inpeached!! NOT

Sunday, let's just say wasn't one of my favorites on record. Brennen is now a Sunbeam. So that means he is in Sharing Time. Well, he doesn't like to sit still, and really hates it when I leave the room. On top of that, it is my month to conduct and I did sharing time for a sick councilor. So he wanted my attention. Then when it was time for class, I walked him there, and waited for his teachers to come. They let him scream for 40 minutes before they brought him to me. After church, his teachers (only had the calling two weeks), were in the Bishop's office asking to be released. AAAHHHHHHHHHH!!

So every digatal camera comes with their own program, so it is taking some time to learn the how to access my pictures. Plus they a 8.1 MP, so they take forever to load. I'll get some new pictures as soon as I figure it out.

Snow Day!!!!!

Try number two for this blog!!!
Maybe that is why I don't get it done very often. It keeps eating all my work.
I had a really nice blog, published it, went to view it and it was gone. Just the title was there.

Today we have a snow day. It snowed a good 3 to 4 inches yesterday. And there is that much snow compacted on the roads. They were as slick as snot yesterday. I had a very late bus pickup one of our students, and so that made me late in leaving to pick up Ash by half and hour. It took me a good 25 minutes to go 5 miles between the traffic and the traffic lights.

Brennen loves pickle juice now. I took a bunch of pictures of him doing it, because his facial expressions were so funny. The pictures didn't do them justice.
