Busy Busy Busy

Life has been throwing me curve balls!

As I've mentioned before, a lot of my experience with children comes from 3 years of daycare experience. This is what I was doing until end of August... when I got a phone call from a previous employer. They needed a certified teacher to teach the 4-year-old kindergarten program. Catch is, I was called Wednesday, and would need to report for duty on the following Monday! Trust me, my emotions took quite a beating that week. It is hard to leave a job you truely enjoy to start a new adventure.

After getting emergency licensure (I am certified for 6-13 year olds and I'm teaching 4/5 year olds), setting up my classroom, getting to know my wonderful co-teacher, and coming up with a curriculum game plan... life has calmed down a little bit. Financially, this job has been a Godsend, and I'm now getting in a routine. So, I'm back to slowly working on my website.

I have a 3 page list of things I want to accomplish, but I ticked off a couple today and I'll keep working down. My next goal is to dedicate a portion of my page to local customers, and I want to get going with my husband to start up a few my wood-working designs. I need to stop now. Once I get brainstorming, I lose myself... about 48 new ideas just popped into my head. Aye-yi-yi!

I promise to stop being a stranger to my blog! Now to shower, go to the library, grocery shop, develop photos, work on birthday invitations, and prepare my classroom for tomorrow night's open house!
