Back to the Grind!

Yes, It's Thursday. And I haven't posted since Monday. The week has been extremely busy, as you can probably guess. It has been extremely s-l-o-w also. All the teachers are just exhausted and each day really just seems to take an eternity. Probably because everything is so new to the kids that you feel like everything has to been explained in such details that it takes forever to get anything done and we can't teach anything fun, it is just a week of pounding out the routines etc. It's boring. I am ready to get in there and assign fun projects etc. ( I know, I know, most of you are boo-hooing because you feel soooo sorry that I haven't had to work all summer and you feel sorry for me now that I do...when you have had to get up every day and work all summer!)

To add to all the hoop-la of a new school year our family has decided to move again!!!!!! Can you believe it!? Well, we are going on 3 years in the same house, so ya know we need to get moving. We have bought a "lot"(otherwise known as a parcel of land) back in "town".(The name of the town is not going to be exposed since I don't want to be a "weak link" in the safety of my family) But most of you will know what "town" I am talking about. We have bought a lot, a wooded lot. It is beautiful. We will have neighbors across the street from us, but not on the sides because our lot is pretty spread out. We are anxious to have neighbors a little closer again. Like I told my sister, we are looking for another Ray and Carri. ( Ray & Carri, we don't want to replace you!-we just want another one of you!:) ) I can't wait to hear all your responses to this latest news! :) You can leave me a comment and tell me how crazy we are, but we already know crazy we are, so you wouldn't be telling us anything we don't know! :)

Well, I should go- I have staff meeting in 10 mins. and haven't done a think to prepare for my day. Pray I get through this day/week. I have been staying up rather late to write curriculum and am exhausted.

I will add some pictures tonight of our new land and also some pictures! Thanks for being faithful readers!! Love you all! Amy
