Year 3 Begins

I'm off to my 3rd annual TKA Staff Retreat! I am SO excited that K. is joining us on staff this year. She's been a real trooper so far and I know she will be awesome with the kids. Not to mention all the FUN we are going to have working together!

I am doing well myself, getting ready for the year. This year feels so different, being that 1) it's not my first year, 2) it's not two weeks right after my wedding, and 3) I'm only teaching 2 periods (plus one period of tutoring center, but that doesn't involve any prep). The beginning of the year still feels like a big push because you have to do pretty much the same amount of prep whether you're teaching a class four times a day or two. But I am excited to do better in my teaching and be healthier (physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually) during the year.

My goals for this year are to:
- sleep more
- cook more
- take better care of Brian
- help K. at school
- stay at least one week ahead in prepping/copying homework assignments
- learn to arrange flowers so I can help out at Sharon & Scott's flower shop

Here we go!
