Time for teaching

Grandma
I go back to teaching on Tuesday. Same school, as the proper time to switch schools is April if you're already in the system. Who knew? Apparently everyone but me, but there you go.

I have a lot of concerns about teaching at the same school. I wish I could have switched. I wish I could be teaching high school. I wish I could eat ice cream all the time and not get fat, especially the ones with cookie dough magically mixed into some other confection. I'm a sucker for cookie dough.

On the other hand, I'm miraculously ready to teach. I now know why teachers deserve a summer break. I'm refreshed, I'm prepared like never before, and I'm excited to plunge back into the pool. I'm scared, but not scared shitless.

It will be amusing to see the blog posts in about a week. The pic is of me and my Grandma. She's 90, and wears fun hats in the pool.

LOVE the cookie dough ice cream.

Good luck with your new school year. I used to teach and left the field. don't have my summers free anymore but my stress level is way down so it's all good.

oh, it's a hat....i thought it was a rogaine experiment gone horribly wrong.

The hat is fabulous. Wear it to class on the first day. You'll be the teacher all the kids talk about decades from now. What an impact you'll have. :-)

Awww...she's precious! And you're pretty darned cute yourself.

Have a wonderful new school year G. I'll be sending you good thoughts from the "mom" side.
