Happy 5 day weekend!

I love being a teacher. Why? Because we get lovely holidays like this. We are off school Thursday, Friday, and Monday for Easter break. The girls were crazy this week, so it is a good thing we do not have to see them again. Pictured above is my beautiful new car. It is the replacement for when some jerk hit and totalled my cute little Saturn in a parking lot. So with only $800 dollars to pay on Susie, I had to say goodbye. So much for all the plans I had when my car payment was gone!

Anyway, I am a big fan of this car. It has the center spedometer panel. That was weird to get used to. When I turn on the left blinker, it is where the right blinker used to be. So that always gets me for a second. I also have to get used to having my automatic windows on the door like the rest of the world. I am just so used to the center controls for that! So yesterday I stood in line at the DMV to register my car-- that was ridiculous. It took over an hour. The workers were VERY slow. Things worked out, I sold them my unborn children in exchange for the tax, and now I have plates for my car.

Monday was the Cardinals home opener. They won! Homeruns were hit by Pujols and Mulder (his first in the major leagues). We have tickets for next Friday against the Cubs. I cannot wait to see the new stadium! Plus, its been a long winter without baseball!
