Counting down the countdowns.

There are a lot of countdowns going on in Casa de Ferreira right now! Jay is counting down to IronMan (T-26 days), Josh is counting down to his birthday (T-6 days) and me, well, I'm counting down the days until school starts!

Of course, the start of school also brings back the start of work for me. I'm looking forward to it, but it's also a little nerve wracking because the gal who did this job for the past several years was always so busy! We were given her schedule from last year and she only slotted 10 minutes for lunch each day... eek! I'm not sure that's going to fly for me or my job sharing partner. I know I'm going to need at least an extra 10 minutes to refresh myself midway through the day!

Today marks the start of the extra curriculars. Kenna and I are taking ballet, although not together. She's moved up a level and is only taking ballet this year; I took a class at the end of last season and was placed with the upper level girls. It's been a long time since I've taken a ballet class (like, 19 years or so) and I'm hoping I can keep up. It will be a little awkward being the old hag in with all the skinny little high school girls, but I'm trying not to think about it. At least the instructor isn't making me wear a leo & tights!! I'm a firm believer in not wearing something just because they make it in your size :)

Dance on, yo!
