Summer's End

School is two weeks past already.  I feel like I have settled in despite starting my reading/writing class only to have the rug ripped out from under me last Thursday to be given an 8th grade Pre-Algebra class.  The good news is most of the students are mine from last year and I will be working with Peggy again before we start each book and I already know the program.  I made some adjustments and moved on.  Was nervous but it has worked.  Went through a week of firsts.  First 8th grade math class, first handbell rehearsal, first piano lesson.  After some searing temperatures this week and miserable sticky soaking wet days (90's) a horrific series of storms Wednesday brought the temperatures to the point that it dropped about 40 degrees and feels like fall.  I love my Saturday mornings...a bit of catching up, cleaning, laundry, reading newspapers, magazines and being alone (with Lucy of course).  Time to set off on my day of shopping and erran...

See You....in September....

Oh oh, wait, it is September!!! YIKES.  What a wonderful fast summer!   Kids were home, shower is over, car is shipped, house is as clean as it is going to get, I have traveled everywhere I wanted to go, some updates (doors and brick patio to garage), dog is happy, time to go back to school I guess.   Again, ready as I can get.  I am going to try and enjoy Labor Day and not dwell on the negatives.  I am sure I won't sleep tonight, nor will anyone else at school.  Been fighting a stomach thing.  Hope it goes away soon.  It Is What It Is and it is time to get back to it!
