I have been stressing about school starting for me & getting the kids where they need to be and finding parking and yada yada yada....
In July I went to the institute and entered their lottery for free parking for Fall semester. I am a very hopeful person!
I ended up buying a parking pass from the school and have had to give myself an hour to get from home, find a spot, get on the shuttle & make it to class on time. 2 days a week my kids were going to have to eat breakfast at school so I could make it to my school on time. Not a big deal...but I would rather have them eat at home so i can make sure they eat a good breakfast...one of those quirks of mine =)
We went to the institute on Monday so they could take my picture. It was a lot of fun because I had my kids with me & we got to meet my teacher and they unlocked my classroom so the kids could go and explore. They were so excited & thought it was so cool to see one of my classrooms =)
They also had a sign posted on the door for those who received cards in the mail for the lottery parking to come on in and claim their prize. I was so bummed, but thought "oh well," cause I have everything figured out.
Isabelle brought in the mail yesterday...it was a bunch of ads. I decided to just look through them, for lack of something better to do...and what did I find?????? MY LOTTERY PARKING POSTCARD!!!!!!!!!!!
I am SOSOSOSOSOSOSOSOSOSOSOSOSO excited!!!! This means parking will be a breeze this Fall semester! The institute is only a hop, skip & a jump across the street from the education building where I start my classes everyday. Now my hour long plan has turned into 30 min. plan (I still want to be there somewhat early) And so I get to drop off my kids everyday at 8:25 (their bell rings at 8:30) and feed them breakfast & even walk into class with them on their first day! Hooray!!!!
Sorry this took awhile to explain, but if you couldn't tell, I am REALLY excited =)
