I’m sitting here this morning thinking, “Can I really stay at home today?” As I lounge around my house, I keep looking at the clock and thinking to myself, “Are you sure you don’t have anything left to do in your classroom to prepare for the move?” Can I really get away with doing stuff around my place? Do I really have absolutely nothing to do for students? Well, I do have a trip to plan for the cheerleaders, but I’m not starting on that until Monday. Shouldn’t I be dancing, laying in the floor, shouting Hallelujah, running for joy and laughing? What’s wrong with me? Why am I questioning this beautiful gift?It is hard for me to believe that the summer has started. I am excited about the prospect of it all. I am thrilled. I am nervous. Now I have a massive to do list for my personal life.
- Clean up my home office
- Spring my entire apartment
- Take the GRE Apply & Enroll in Master Program
- Organize all of the papers I have piled up—school junk
- Work on state paperwork
- Prepare to move—actually this should be decide to move & then prepare
For school:
- I want to plan my entire year with World History (I’ll settle for the first semester)
- Work with Team Teacher on aligning our classes
- Take a course in teaching African American history
- More professional development in classroom management
- Research & implement an action plan for motivating students
Needless to say, I plan to have a working summer, but I’ll get a nap EVERYDAY!!! I’ll get stay up late. And I won’t be driven to drink. Come to think of it, I haven’t had a drink in like 2 weeks. No school = No alcohol. Strange.
The praise song I'm singing today is:
