Honestly, I do love my job. I only wish that it gave me more money!! 
Life in the Rainbow Fish room has been nothing but dull this week, and the adventure that started with my husband on Sunday has continued this week. Maybe that’s why I’m so tired?
Sunday was a great day with Geoff- we went to the Amanas, had an awesome meal, took the road of DEATH back home, spent some money we shouldn’t have, although it turned out to be just as well, did taxes, played around, and just had some fun.
I also started the move in the apartment. I have a grand plan that I will switch two of the rooms around completely. I want to make the current living room into a den-ish office, and the current office into a library. Should be fun? I already have three bookshelves moved, and I’m just so tired.
Monday was a very interesting day. We got to meet a police officer, deal with a few episodes of projectile vomit, meet a new kid to the center, and just try to adapt to the day. I was very pleased with my team– they rose to each challenge with energy and spirit. We met each task with vigor and succeeded on all counts. I bought them pizza. *^_^*
Today, my friend Meg came in to teach my kids all about pre-historic Iowa and the animals that roamed here. We got to play around with awesome casts, and learn about BIG animals. We also got to see more of our new kid (who will be slowly transitioning during the week), and got to deal with lots of paperwork.
I’m very excited to have a team outing (sounds so corporate…RF night out!) for Valentine’s Day. It should be a blast. I really hope to cement these working relationships into actual friendships as well. 
I am just so tired right now, but internally, I feel a need to be doing something. I’m going to keep searching until I die, so I need to just find something and go with it. I need to move on something, and I hope that I’m succeeding with the volunteering with the Museum of Natural History. I really am excited for this, and have been working with Meg on lessons and ideas for storytimes. It’s different than I expected, but nothing I can’t adapt to!
I also have been crafty (thanks, mom, for all the books!)– I’ve been working on my sock creatures. I think my goal should be to sew another one tonight. I’ve got 5 or 6 right now, and all they need are faces. I’d like to get at least one more done (I am sewing these all by hand) tonight. That should be my goal!
