It has been busy at the Muhlig household so I've had very little time to post and quite frankly didn't really have anything overly exciting to post. Well, I guess that is a matter of opinion if any of my blog posts are exciting but such is life.
Ryan has settled in very well with his new position as Assistant Principal. He seems to enjoy his new job and is extremely busy from the time he arrives to school to the time he leaves. He also has many evening activities that he has to attend, so we are all adjusting to his new schedule. Bow season started not long ago and he has very little opportunity to hunt with his work schedule. Thankfully his wife is a cool gal and doesn't complain too much when he wants to go hunting on the weekends. He is anxiously awaiting the arrival of quail and pheasant season when he makes his annual trek to western, Ks on opening weekend.
Madelyn loves second grade. She tells us that Mrs. White is her favorite teacher, but she tells us every year that her current teacher is her favorite. We are very pleased with how well she is doing in school this year. She has received 100% on all her weekly spelling test thus far and reports that spelling is "easy." We will see if she continues to feel that way as the year progresses. Madelyn has also really taken off with reading, she loves a/r and is thrilled about reading chapter books. She and I make a trip to the library about twice a month so she can check out new books (and don't let her tell you differently Gramma Muhlig). Ryan and I are both thrilled that Madelyn has a love for reading, as neither of us did and therefore we struggled with reading when we were younger. Madelyn participates in Girl Scouts twice a month and has soccer practice and games twice a week. However, soccer season is coming to an end and she will soon be starting basketball.
My day consists of the same crap different day. I'm still plugging away at my job working with new admissions and supervising eleven Case Managers. I still complain that I'm doing the director's job without the title and don't get paid nearly enough but I still love what I do so I guess that counts for something. I continue to run 3-5 times a week just not covering near the mileage as when I'm in training mode. A friend talked me into attending a spinning class at the YMCA a couple times a month and that has been a fun but tough class. It is a nice change of pace. Evenings are spent running Madelyn to and from her activities and attending AHS events. And interestingly, the girl that hated reading as a child, now reads a couple books a month, and they aren't just picture books!
Life is Good.
