Getting used to it all . . .

Well, I had a lot of stuff to do today for my new job. I went to turn in a bunch of paperwork at central office and ask questions. So I turned in what I had done, then took the rest home to finish. it. Jose and I agreed on what kind of insurance we wanted and so I filled all those papers out. When I went back to turn in the papers I had to go to another teacher's house to have him sign the letter of recommendation he had written for me.
After that I went back to central office and turned in the rest of the paperwork. All they need now is a verification from CP on how many days I worked last year and how many sick days I have left, etc. I also got to take my photo for my ID. It was very exciting (I know I'm a big dork) to get my ID and everything!
After that, I went to the AT&T store to get a new phone. Jose needs a cell phone, so we decided that he will take mine and I can get a new one. So I was gone for quite a while, like 3 hours, and Jose called me about 4 times in that 3 hours. When I got home, I expected Jose to be a little mad at me for being away for so long and leaving him with the kids, but he didn't say anything. While I was gone, he had washed the dishes and cleaned the stove and countertop. He was in the process of sweeping the kitchen floor, so I took Diego upstairs with me and he mopped the floor when he was done sweeping!! He also had the 2 older kids taking naps on the couches. Sophia fell asleep but Josh didn't, so Jose took Josh outside with him to mow the lawn. They are still out there picking up sticks, mowing, and weedeating. I am here at the computer and Diego and Sophia are both asleep. It's so nice to have a break!!
Jose will start back to work tomorrow and will work half days this whole weekend to get back into the hang of things, then he'll have Monday off. Well, I better go. I want to go play with my new phone and see what it can do!!
