So Mike has been surviving his first week of school thus far. And Addison and I have been trying to keep busy at home while Mike is at school all day. We really dont have it too bad for the month of January. Mike only has 2 classes during this month. He goes to school from 8-11, comes home for lunch and then has to be back for his second class from 1-4. He has every Friday off...so we really kind of have it good. The bad part about having such a short semester, is he has a test every single week. Buts its good in a way, b/c then he doesnt have to memorize so much in a long period of time.
Being at home all day, and knowing that I have NO money to go out and spend really doesnt give me a whole lot to do. Addie and I clean the house, watch movies, take a nap, go on a walk, and thats about it. Its only the first week and so far it is going OK, but it is going to be a LONG 2 1/2 years. Any suggestions on what to do with our time?? We do quite a bit but it still goes by so slowly.
We are so grateful to have this opprutunity to come here to Tennessee, though, and have Mike go through this program. We have LOVED our ward and the great friends that are in it. This past Sunday we were invited to this couple's home along with the misisonaries to have dinner. We have never felt so welcomed into a ward before.

Oh yea! Sounds like your doing just fine, maybe a craft during the day might help keep ya busy? Good Luck and good luck to Mike!!
Yeah! It's always nice to move to a new place and to be surrounded by awesome people. Glad your liking it....I'm jealous Mike will be done with school before Nate!
Good luck staying entertained. If you have any friends in your ward with kids start a lunch at the park once a week, or even a lunch at someone's house. They're probably just as bored as you. Learn a new hobby- pick up cross-stitching or sewing, or you can make FHE packets and color them some days, Addie can even do that!
To quote the line from the Trace Adkins song " You're going to miss this". Enjoy the time cause as soon as Addison hits pre-school, you will never be out of your car! Find our if your local library has a children;s story hour. Most of them do and you can explore books for yourself! Have fun!
