Getting busy.

Well, they say that if you want something done, go to someone who is busy to do it.

I met with the person who will be my advisor briefly the other night, and I will be going to see her for a one-on-one appointment, probably next week. I'll be getting my K-5 teaching certificate simultaneously with my Master's degree as a Teacher of Students with Disabilities. Keep your fingers crossed that I get an assistantship, which would waive my tuition and fees (and they are substantial), and get me a part time job with a stipend.

Plus, I just told my friend Gabrielle that I would rejoin the Friends of the Boonton Holmes Library to work on fundraising for the repairs and renovations the building needs.

I'm gathering up stuff that I would have put on Freecycle to help the Boonton Rescue Squad, which might be losing their Kiwanis funding, to help run a garage sale to raise money.

I've just started working on refinancing the house, via the HARP, to lower my mortgage; that's going to take a little time, too.

And I've been running all over creation singing funerals and weddings to make some money.

I'd rather be busy than not, though.
