A new year =)

So the year has started off swimmingly =). I have the most adorable kids yet again who while very quiet seem to be willing to learn and follow directions (it was only the first week). While there is still a threat of one of the 5th grade classes folding, my only hope is that it won't be mine *fingers crossed*. My goal is ultimate organization this year! I'm off to a good start, but man, am I exhausted, keeping up with grading, filing and planning which just might kill me in the process! Perhaps I'm not cut out for being organized and ahead! haha =)Thanks to Kress for assisting with my gradine woes =).Well, at least I can say I'll look sharp heading to campus after these shopping sprees =).

Time for work!

Phew, time flies when you're having way too much fun! =) After the most fabulous summer in an oober long time, I must return to work. My official day back begins in nearly 8 hours. *sigh* Don't get me wrong, I'm actually quite excited for the new school year to begin, but it's also hard to say goodbye to those late morning cups of coffee on the couch with the today show blaring. It's hard to say goodbye to the keeping busy outdoors, being "one with nature". Alas, duty calls =). Thanks to the tireless crew of workers...aka...my family...I have a nearly functional classroom =). Wish me luck! =)
