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 8 interpreters!

Those 8 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 9 months and 1 week old (any day now, she will take off on her own!).

In 3 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 6 things this summer that need to be started or accomplished regarding 2 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".
