Moms First night Away

Well the Shaw family is in store for all kinds of changes with my new job. For those of you who don't know I got my teaching degree and I am teaching Business at an alternative school about 25 miles from our home. Besides teaching I am also the BPA advisor. This means that there are a lot of conferences that I have to go to some taking students and some without. Well I had my first teaching conference. A week ago. It was my first time to Boise and for those of you who don't know me I am a wimp when it comes to driving in the big city that is why I live out in the country. Well I survived the two day trip and so did the family that was left at home. Much to my suprise the house was not just standing but Steve made sure that the front room and kitchen were clean when I got home. I was only gone one night but Steve had to call a couple times so that I could help Ariel with her math. It seems that her 4th grade math is harder than any math I remember taking. I hope we get through school with all of them. Anyways we all survived the weekend without mom and it was nice to have a little alone time to myself. I even had to go and get a tire fixed while I was gone. I got to boise and when I got out of the car the tire was almost flat I dont know how I made it there but I found a Les Schwab all by myself and got it fixed. Steve was really suprised about that. But all in all it was a good weekend and I learned a lot of stuff to help me become a better teacher.
