Goo, Giggles, & Grins
Friday, ¡Por Fin! What a crazy adventure this week as been.
- Sunday: Playa Rincon
- Monday: Playa Fronton
- Tuesday: School
- Wednesday: Pinkeye
- Thursday: School
- Friday: Goo and the Carla's
Today school couldn't get over fast enough. I was so ready to be done with this week. I am still fighting something, but I'm not sure what to do about it since I don't want to go to the doctor. Until then I drug up and sleep...perhaps purchasing some coughdrops in the candy aisle will help.
Today we made Goo or Ooobleck properly. It was an insane endeavor on my part without the assistance of someone else. Being Friday the students weren't listening and were doing just about everything they were NOT supposed to be doing. But oh much fun was had by all...including yours truly until it came time to go back inside. Then I was ready to say "see ya" and let them run wild...but I did not. I stuck it out and dealt with temper tantrums instead. Here is our group picture collage with close ups of almost every one in the picture...I did a collage because it allows you to see the individual expressions on each person's face!
After school I took the time to unwind after a crazy afternoon. Then Christy Elmer and I went over to the Carla's house for dinner. They have moved into a much better house and have their own room now! Their mom is getting remarrried to someone who actually provides for their family! Their new house is much closer to school and in a much safer neighborhood. I hope that their transition to a new family and a new house is good for them. When I first got there we helped Tonia their mom hang up clothes and get things ready for when Luis (their stepfather) moves in. Their girls were such good helpers. Then it was time to play games. I made a collage of everything that happened there too; so I don't have load individual pictures. I am continually thankful that God has put me here this year to minister to families like the Carla's.
I hope everyone has a great weekend! I am planning on spending the rest of mine lesson planning, doing laundry and getting rid of the migrane that has decided to visit today.

So glad goo making went well. I hope you get to feeling better soon. Don't wait too long though to see the dr. if you don't improve (just a little motherly advice, after all I am your mom).
