Whew! This week was another crazy busy one. I keep thinking things are going to settle down, but so far, no such luck. Wednesday was my birthday. Thank you one and all for your birthday greetings! I ended up having to work on my birthday, which happens more often than not. My birthday tends to [...]

For those of you who don’t know or are new to the blog (hi Kendra!), for the last year or so, I’ve been doing book clubs for kids at the local library. Last night was my 10 year olds, and we were doing Eragon. The week before, I had planned that the craft we would [...]

Ding, Dong, the wicked Falwell’s dead! Right now, I’m doing a jig over his still-warm body. I know it’s wrong to be so happy that a person is dead, but come on – I know some of you are too! It’s just that the man spread so much hate and intolerance in his far too [...]

Finals week is finally over! Life is now kittens walking on rainbows, or at least it was until 8:30 this morning. With finals week in full swing, I wasn’t getting much sleep and wasn’t really eating. I was merely existing on facts. Of course, when I got home from my last final last night, I [...]
Still Crazy Busy

But only until 8:30 Wednesday night. That’s when finals week comes to its painful end. Until then, there will not be much blogging. I did, however, get some great news this week. I got accepting into the certification program I wanted. This means I’ll be certified to teach in PA by this time next year! [...]
