Currently Watching The Simpsons - The Complete Seventh Season By Doris Grau, Marcia Mitzman Gaven see related

ok, so its been a while since i posted here.  i don't really know why.  its not like nothing's been going on, for some reason i just haven't been motivated enough to make a post.  well the big news is that I HAVE A JOB!!!!  yeeehaw!!  rehoboth christian school in new mexico offered me a job about a week after spring break and i gratefully accepted.  it will be a bit of stretch for me since i will be picking up chemistry for the first time as well as getting back to biology which i haven't taught for a little while.  i'm excited about the change though.  teaching 5 different classes of physics this year shows me that i need a little variety in my job.  so now we're in the fun task of looking for a house and car and all that other fun/expensive stuff.  its crazy how perspectives change at certain points of life.  before now, a big expenditure in our family would be anything over $500.  a house will be at least 150,000.  i can't even wrap my head around that yet.  its interesting to think of money as an investment instead of just a means of trading.  fortunately we have a lot of people helping us out.

well, i would write more, but i'm tired and i need sleep.  now that i broke the ice with this post, i'm hoping i'll get back to being more regular here.

before i go, here's a pic of zoe that i took in malaysia over spring break.  she was enthralled with this huge funnel that you rolls coins into.  i caught this picture of her looking into the funnel.  this picture cracks me up every time i look at it.
