T[her]sday: Her day, her way.. Jenna Math 101

*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
 "Every number has a name, every name has a story and every story matters to God."  I try to make sure I get those stories in print in my Meditations&Musings4Mondays, "[what]S'up, Wednesday?" and FrienDay FriDay; but I've realized, I don't have a "numbers crunching post" for those who want the bottom line. Thus, I introduce "T[her]sday: Her day, her way.. Jenna Math". As a caveat though (and really a disclaimer to being terrible at math), these will be more entertaining than they are 100% accurate. "Jenna Math" as my family calls my adding ability often ends up a few numbers off.. So, with that in mind, enjoy these mostly accurate calculations of mine :)

In March, 10 Deaf students attended Big Break, meaning I needed interpreters!

Those interpreters, during the week that we were there, worked over 216 hours. 

My mom and I (and my daughter) drove a lil more than 28 hours down there and back over the course of 5 days (two days down, three days back).

My daughter is walking (behind a push toy) at months and week old (any day now, she will take off on her own!).

In weeks I'm planning to leave town for 3ish weeks (see my post next week for finalized details). 

In that 3ish weeks, I'm probably going to drive 3,121  miles - YAY driving (not! - wanna drive with me? lmk if you wanna be my travel buddy)! 

Sadly, for the 2nd summer,  0 Deaf students signed up for Summer Project.

There are still things this summer that need to be started or accomplished regarding Deaf staff member joining staff next year!

As of May, I have had $1,280  donated towards the matching grant, 
meaning that since January, I have raised $2,560.

However, that leaves $25,976  to still be raised to reach my 2015 budget goal. 

With 5 months already down in the calendar year, I've got 7  months left until my matching grant "expires".
