finally!

After much wait and anticipation (well, not really the second one, mostly just the first), here we are again!! It has been a whirlwind of a summer and I can hardly believe school is starting in just a week from today! This past Friday was my last day at U.L. Coleman, and it was bitter sweet. My boss, Jan, pretty much became my 2nd Mom and I am going to miss her so much!! . . . but they hired someone full time to replace me so that will be good that she will have help when she has to go out for back surgery (she had a rod in her back the snapped in 2...she is one tough cookie!). Anyways, inservices at St. Joseph Catholic school began TODAY and kiddos will be arriving next week. It has been a mad dash getting the classroom set up and getting curriculum together (I am teaching the gifted and 504 supplement/learning center programs so all of the lessons/units are self-created)...cross your fingers that I don't fall on my face! Nonetheless, I am SUPER excited to get back into the classroom...I've missed it so much!
Michael is doing well..only something like 7 flights and 2 sims left until he is training complete...and then off to SERE...and then he'll be officially FINISHED!
Anyhow, just quick up date, more to come :)
