I've been consumed with work, much more than I care to be and I am hoping the demands taper off by the end of August. It turns out that Summer is our busy time in charter school enrollment. We have quite a few new schools that are taking up a lot of my time, but the biggest drain on my time is Louisiana. Before this job I new very little about Louisiana and the more I learn about it, the less desire I have to ever come back. Since June 30th I've been in Louisiana (in either Baton Rouge or Shreveport) for 21 days. I calculated that and that means I've spent 52.5% of my time here. Over 50%!?! Crazy, huh?
Time is just flying by with all of this work travel and having to work weekends, late nights, etc. Since the last time I blogged:
- Matt and I celebrated the 100 days until the wedding! Now we are down to 74 days.
- We attended two weddings in one day
- We celebrated our engagement anniversary (from afar because as you can guess, I was in Louisiana)
- Matt's parents came to visit us
- I booked travel to come home late August for my dress fittings and a bridal shower
- We booked our flight and hotel for the wedding week!
- Matt kicked off the interview process in NYC with 15 interviews with different schools from Seattle U to Northeastern and lots of places inbetween
Well I have lots I want to blog about but most of those things include pictures so I will have to wait to blog until I'm back in Knoxville. I miss blogging!

We miss you blogging too. That is really insane that you have been in LA more than home in July! Hope you can break that trend in August.
I read Megan's comment and I agree. I miss your blogs, too. I really like the pics you add and maybe you can explain to me-very sequentially and specifically-how to add pics and/or post a photo album. I want to add pics from my mom's 80th gathering to the Newman page. Oh my, 50% of your time in Louisiana. Lucky you and in the hottest of the hot part of the summer! Get home soon. I'm sure Matt misses you and needs you back!
I plan to blog this weekend...so much to catch up on, including my first exposure the the Newmans!
