A long time coming...

It has been quite some time since I have posted here. Life is just plain hectic. Honestly, I have missed this outlet terribly, and I have no clue why I have taken the time off.

 

This has been a very strange school year. We are finishing our first semester today ( yes, I am writing this at school...shhhh, don't tell anyone) and it is about time. This semester has been like the gift that just keeps on giving. We were supposed to finish last Thursday and start the new semester today, but the icy weather had some other ideas. Then we had more ice last night which gave us a two hour delay this morning. So, the moral of the story is this: the semster is now ending 6 days and two hours later than it was supposed to.

 

I am so glad that the semester break is over as well. We have had teacher workdays, holidays, and snow days, and it is getting old. I did not go into teaching to spend this many days in my classroom by myself. Anyway. Enough about that.

 

I am so pumped because the construction on the new classroom building here is nearing completion. We should get to move in at the beginning of March. We go to go into the new building itself on Friday. It is so beautiful! None of the walls are painted band-aid brown like they are in this building. I am so very excited! :happydance: It made me rather tearful the first time I saw it. It looks like what a school should look like! :laughbounce:

 

Okay...that is all from the what it's worth department!

Susan,

 

Yes, it has been awhile since we've heard from you. Glad all is moving along. My daughter, so far, has had only 1 late start day. They are wrapping up their semester as well with mid-term exams this week.

 

The new school addition sounds exciting.
