IT'S MAY!!!!

I know I have been absent for awhile. It has been the year where I have just been beaten down too much by the day to day stuff leaving little time for everything else, but that is all about to change...
Listening- Spring peepers! Once you hear them it means spring. I am absolutely loving the fact I can hear them from inside my house. 

Loving- Umm yeah...so my current commute is an hour and 15 minutes one way. Add snow and bad roads make it at least an hour and a half. But next year my commute will be under 10 minutes. I got hired at a local school. It is kinda my dream job! I can't wait to start working with the staff there. 

Thinking- Yes only 25 more days of school. I can make it! I can get everything done that needs to get done. 

Wanting- It has been raining like crazy lately. I know it is a good thing, but it is leaving a swamp so no bonfires in the future. Also I will be camping within the next two weeks, but if the rivers are too high it kinda puts a damper on it. 

Needing- my to-do list is long. A few extra hours would help. 

Surprise- my students are loving the math facts quizzes from Jen Ross's Multiplication and Beyond-Tasty Facts. It is great seeing so many of them being successful!

Happy May!

  3. Yay for you! Sounds like you have a lot to look forward to for next school year. If you find a way to get more hours in your weekend, will you share your secret? I sure could use a few more also. ;) Best wishes on finishing the year strong and for your exciting future!

  4. Found you through the link up. Congratulations on getting your dream job! My commute is now 10 minutes and I so much prefer it to my previous job of up to an hour car drive home each night!
