Kindergarten and Keeping up with Deadlines

     I decided two weeks ago to take a kindergarten position at another school.  I am excited to be going back to kindergarten and nervous about going to a new school.  The school I am moving to is closer to home and smaller than the school I am leaving.  I know it's a great school because I use to sub there a lot for the kindergarten teachers.  I'm excited that I will now get to work with these wonderful teachers.
   As I am thinking about going back to school in 4 Weeks, I have been doing a little summer reading.  I was at Books-a-Million about a month ago and came across a new book, The Together Teacher: Plan Ahead, Get Organized, and Save Time by Maia Heyck-Merlin.  I am only on page 46 but I am finding it very helpful.  I am usually forgetting appointments and other personal things that I need to remember.  Yeah, I think my beautician is no longer accepting my calls because I forgot another hair appointment.  In this book, the author talks about ways to keep yourself organized so that you don't forget important dates.  I haven't read past that yet, but I think this book was worth what I paid.  I know many of you might want to check this book out also as it may help you organize and manage your time better.  I'm going to keep reading and I will let you know more about the book later.

     By the way, I have been laaaazzzy this summer so I haven't been doing much of anything.  I think I am just so relieved to not have anymore grad papers to write or papers to grade. ;)

Summer

     So far summer is turning out way different than I planned.  My internet was down for a month because of something the cable company did.  When it was finally fixed, the electric went out for 4 days.  Well I finally have everything working.

     I have been taking a break from my computer since I finished my masters degree.  I needed a break.  I felt like I was glued to the laptop.  I have finally decided that I want to start working on school stuff again.  It's hard to believe that it is already July and I haven't done much this summer except take my son to the free summer movies every week and go to the library.  Well, look for me to post what I am working on soon.
