September and such.

Well summer was officially over by September. It was back to normal life for both of us. I started teaching again on August 25th, and Jordan's schedule got a little heavier. Getting back into the swing of things was an adjustment. Having the whole summer off really makes my job worth it. Don't get me wrong, I love teaching and getting to know my students. Seeing them grow as children is truly rewarding! After about ten months of almost straight teaching, it's time for a break. Once the shock of it all wore off, we started back in on our new hobbies. Jordan's been working out like crazy--gaining tons of muscle mass (about 20 lbs). I went to the gym faithfully in the summer, but just got back into the routine after Thanksgiving. I also started reading the Twilight series, which most of you agree is great and has occupied most of my time and thoughts. I just finished Eclipse last night! I can't wait to start Breaking Dawn. I've never really enjoyed reading much, but I've found a new love. I look forward to continuing with this new hobby after I finish the series. Jordan listened to the audio version of the books on his iPod. Of course, he finished before me--and taunted me with how much better each book was. We've enjoyed adding these new hobbies to our lives.
