i am officially completely unpacked....

There are no more boxes in my room now. Everything I own is now fully unpacked. Over the weekend I picked up some furniture for my room. A lady from the church I am going to gave it away so I jumped on that deal real quick. I got a queen size bed, bookcase, night stand, and an armoire. I definitely lucked out. I put up some pictures on my finished room, as well as pictures of my living room with my new couch.

There aren't really many updates on my life. Work at the school is going well. This week I have parent teacher conferences so I am kind of excited for those because I will get to meet the kids' parents. I will have a lot of meetings, but I am looking forward to them.
Coaching is going well also. I am getting back into the compulsory mind set and learning all of the new beam and floor routines. Always a good time. I like working with the kids though and I think they are beginning to get use to my conditioning. =)

Something on the side.....

Today I did a bar clinic for the optionals at the gym I have been going to lately. Last Thursday the owner asked me if I would like to start coaching because she is in need of another coach. So, I am now coaching level 5's three days a week. It will be just enough to keep me busy in the afternoons after I am done working at the school. I think it will be a good thing for me. I am excited because I will get to go to the meets with the girls and all of that jazz.

Everything else is pretty much the same. I have done more decorating in the house here and there. I am still working on getting furniture for my room. Work went a whole lot better this past week than the previous week so that was encouraging. Well, that's about everything here. I'll be posting more updates soon.

I do have to say congratulations to the Spartans! Go State! and the Titans!!!

Trip to Tacoma, Washington

I took a trip to Washington today. I went to Tacoma, Washington to visit a friend who coached at the same gym I went to in Tennessee when I was in highschool. It is about 2 hours straight up, so it wasn't too bad of a trip. We were going to go to Seattle, but it was raining pretty hard and decided not to go. Here are some pics along the way up though.


Entering Washington. It actually only took me about 2 minutes to cross into Washington from where I live.




A pretty tree. I love fall.




This one is for Abi. =) On my way to Tacoma, Washington.
