So I have off work today and I just got back from meeting with someone about volunteering with an English as a Second Language class. It went really well and I'm really excited about doing it. I will get to teach a class some survival English and other random stuff. He said that the program is mostly about having fun and that they have a very laid-back atmosphere. It seems great. I was interested in doing this for a couple of reasons. First, I need to do something worthwhile and good. I don't really like my job very much and don't get much fulfillment out of that. The people that will be in the classes will really be interested in learning about the U.S. and how to survive here. Second, I think it will be a great experience that will help me when I take the foreign service exam again and it will look good on my resume. Third, it will hopefully help me to improve my oral skills even more. So overall I think it's going to be great! It's only two hours a week during the evening so it won't take up too much of my time.
The rest of today will consist of going to the gym and just chilling with hubs and hopefully some sex later on. It's rainy so I feel no need to do much. Last night was really nice. DH and I just chilled and had some cocktails and watched football. I was tired from the night before so I passed out on the couch pretty early. Some more interesting news is that DH and I booked a cruise to the Bahamas for his 30th birthday in February! BIL and SIL are coming along with a number of DH's friends. I'm really looking forward to it. It wasn't too expensive. The only thing that I will kick myself for was that we should have booked our plane tickets earlier. We hesitated a few days and it cost us like $100! Stupid, but I wanted to make sure that everyone was in on this. A couple of other people booked their tickets for the cruise so it looks like it's a go. SIL and I might be pregnant for the cruise so that should be interesting. I read online though that as long as we are not more than 24 weeks along we should be fine. Ok well I think I'm going to enjoy the rest of my day off. DH and I are going to go to Harper's Ferry and Antietam tomorrow so that should be nice. Have a nice weekend everyone!
