Bronchitis + Running = No Fun

The Cold & Flu season has hit the Randall household HARD in the past 7 days. Last week, Ben had a fever Monday - Wednesday and had to stay home because of it. You'd think that since I got an extra day off out of the deal that I would have put away the laundry before it had piled up to 2 weeks worth of clean baskets. You'd be wrong. :)


Tim has been home sick. The last 2 days which is how you KNOW it's bad. 'Cause in the 12 years we've been married, he's been sick twice. Literally. So I've had a few extra chauffeur duties this week, but otherwise the start of school after break has been pretty great.

Saturday, we had Area All-State Auditions in Abilene, TX. I go to this every year so it always seems like old hat. But THIS year, I had my OWN students singing! Because we've opened as a 4A campus, they were able to compete as a small school and it was AMAZING. In the end, 2 of the 3 kiddos that traveled with us made the Texas Music Educator's Association Small School All- State Choir. It's a HUGE deal! One of the best parts of the day was this Facebook message posted by a friend:



How cool is that?! She had 7 singers make it from her school, so she knows her stuff! Love my choir colleagues. 


This past Friday also marked the 1 year anniversary of my application to Northwest ISD for my new job. I didn't hate my previous position, but it was long since time for me to move on and it was a big step to admit that to myself. When I saw this today it reminded me of that feeling to take the first big step.



Happy Tuesday, y'all!
