Plans Are Always A-Changin'

Talk about changing things up! Last night, I was supposed to meet our 4 potential Honor Stars at the church for their final test. One of the girls' mom had called and let me know she couldn't be there. Ok, reschedule her. Then, on the way home from work, another one of the girls called and said she wouldn't be able to be there either. Ok...hmmm...reschedule both of them for Friday.

After I got home, I got to thinking, "Why would I want to have two test nights???" So, I called the other 2 girls and found out that it would work for them to wait and take the test on Friday too...well, until one of them said, "Oh, wait. I have a b-day party on Friday." *sigh* She'll take her test on Sunday instead. Nothing like pushing this out later and later, is there?

So, I took advantage of not testing last night and had them go ahead come an hour early to work on memory work. Fortunately, the two who couldn't be there last night to test were both there on Friday to study. So the two who were there hadn't had a study session for this test. It worked out. The good and bad part of it was that, once we went to our classroom at 7 to start class, we realized they were the only two there! They wouldn't have needed to come early to begin with! lol Oh well...

Soooo...the girls will test tomorrow night. We will completely finish up with 3 of them. The 4th will finish up completely on Sunday. In fact, I'm going to have to call our District Coordinator and let her know that we'll have some Honor Stars this year...since the test results were supposed to be in earlier than this weekend. I don't know why, but I've always been perpetually late on that!!! Ugh. I'll just work harder to be ahead of the curve next year. lol

As it is, the weather is absolutely beautiful here today!!! But I have to work at the fabric store tonight. I'm guessing a lot of people will be out and about...just to enjoy being out. It's gorgeous!!! I just love the first wonderfully warm and sunny days of spring!!!

Aravis has spring banquet tomorrow night. It's the equivalent of Prom, basically. She's going home with a friend tomorrow after school so that they can help one another get ready. I guess I'm just not good enough to make her pretty. :o( lol All I know is, she better take some pictures!!!

Saturday night is Nitro's military banquet and ball. We're going to the banquet with him, Shelby, Shelby's parents, Nitro's Marine recruiter, and another Marine recruiter that he invited. As far as I know, Nitro and Shelby are going to the ball afterwards. Thankfully, this year, he doesn't have a cold. Last year, he was miserable with a sinus cold. I felt so bad for him. He had to be in his dress uniform in a stuff, noisy auditorium...ugh.

I'm sooooo looking forward to a quiet evening at home tomorrow night...and Saturday morning/afternoon. Ahhhhhh! I hope the weather's as beautiful then as it is now!!!
