I don't know if anyone actually reads this blog...the lack of comments kind of tells me that, but I don't care.

I went to a rodeo the other day! I'm totally serious! It was very fun....made me want to go horseback riding...and buy a bedazzler!

My friends are coming this weekend for Annual Friends Labor Day weekend! Every year a different friend will host it. This way, even though we all go our separate ways, we have a time once a year that we can see each other.....This plan would work a lot better if everyone could attend...but we will have fun nonetheless! I am so excited, but I have a lot to do before Friday!

Open house last night....pretty much the most dreaded night of a teacher's life. Talking in front of children is a piece of cake....parents not so much. Plus, we have a new standards based report card that is both impractical with the amount of information we have and incomplete. Trying to explain it to parents was difficult to say the least. I thought there would be a throw down.

Other than that things went pretty well. I think my parents are going to be pretty supportive so that's good.

Off to make dinner in my new house, I have my first guests tonight...my family! :-)

So school started last week and things have just been crazy. There are a million things to do and I'm trying really hard to get everything in. I like being busy though.

School this year has been different. I actually feel like I know what I'm doing most of the time. We had open house tonight and it was amazing to be able to answer questions and be confident...and not have mono :-)

I have some goofy ones in my class, but it looks like it will be a fun year.

Stay tuned for picures and an interesting dream I had....
