I just got an e-mail from a lady at church saying no one has signed a kid up for nursery for VBS ( think, a week's worth of work). Of course they are not going to pay me to sit in a room with Andrew for 20+ hours. !!!!!!! I DEPEND on this money, this is the money I NEEDED to buy cirriculum. I am just crying now.

Sorry, I just needed to vent.

Yeah- Vacation Bible School.

But, the good news... I just went to get the mail and there was a check from my gram for the exact amount I need for my curriculum.

romanylass, my grandmother always seemed to send me money in my most desperate hours. She still does, actually. I always called it "Magic Money."

Good good good that you got money!
Last week I thought my mother would just send me 50 bucks, but she sent me 100 instead and I needed money DESPARATELY.

That is great news romany! I have had a similar experience in the past, needing a certain amount of money and having someone out of the blue send me that amount. Very cool.

So, you'll have curriculum. Will you have kids there?

It sounded like no-one had signed up. Is that just a timing thing?

Anyway, I'm glad you got some good news. Go gram!!!

I'm fairly certain she meant curriculum to use with her own children, since she home schools.

Oh...<slaps forehead>

Thanks.

So...is there still no nursery for VBS? That's also a shame. But at least the romany kids will get educated!!!

I think it's probably better, in the long run, to have the money and not have to do the work. But maybe I reveal too much about myself there.

Oh, not me, mothertree. I loved teaching nursery school VBS. I did it three summers in a row.

But I didn't get paid for it.

I avoid the children whenever I can. But then, I have issues . . .

Romanylass, I'm so glad it worked out for you! Yay!

I'm so glad it worked out too. And today I plan to order at least Latin and History. But, I actually LOVE working with prescoolers, so if I can convince the VBS co-ordinator to put Andrew in with the three year olds (which he actually is now, but didn't hit their deadline), I may volunteer. I still hope we get a kid or two though, I could still use the money.

romanylass,
Would you be interested in any workbooks on the ancient Greeks? My dad sent me a bunch. I can also send extra workbooks and stuff from school if you want. Just don't expect it soon. I am terrible about getting things in the mail.
