I can’t believe it’s been over a week since my last posting.\u00a0 The weather is crazy.\u00a0 There is bunch of blowing snow outside.\u00a0 There are times when you can’t even see 10 feet.\u00a0 Wunderground.com says that we have 40 to 60 mph winds and a winter storm advisory.\u00a0 So that\u2019s fun.\u00a0 No mail today.\u00a0ASTE is only a week away.\u00a0 Ginger and I are scrambling to get our class put together.\u00a0 I am making a website with all of the information, so the people taking our class can go to it as a reference when they are back at their own schools.\u00a0 I am still in the process of putting it together and upload it as\u00a0 I go.\u00a0 The final step will to be sure I have correct spelling and punctuation.\u00a0 If you want to see what I have, and check my slow progress, you can go to this link<\/a>.\u00a0 Remember I haven’t even begun to look at my conventions, this is the rough draft.\u00a0 It isn’t linked up to anything else, so only people with the exact address can go to it.\u00a0 I am hoping to be done with it in the next week.\u00a0 Then the real criticisms can be sent my way.The acting principal gig ended up being longer than originally planned.\u00a0 Erin and Jim (our principal) took off for Unalakleet (our district office) on Thursday of last week.\u00a0 The basketball games on Friday went pretty well.\u00a0 The Brevig Jr. High played themselves in a scrimmage.\u00a0 Then our high school girls team lost to Nome J.V. in over time.\u00a0 The reffing was questionable.\u00a0 I ended up having to clean up after dinner for them.\u00a0 The cook took off.\u00a0 We luckily in a way had Saturday school.\u00a0 Having this required our cooking staff to come in and cook breakfast and lunch for the kids, which in turn fed the visiting team.\u00a0 All was going great until we had some pretty bad weather the rest of that day, and not only could Nome not leave, but Jim and Erin could not get back home.\u00a0 So my duties continued.\u00a0 The cook informed me he wasn’t going to cook them dinner Saturday evening, or breakfast Sunday Morning.\u00a0 So added to my duties of teacher, athletic director, and principal was being the cook too.\u00a0 So I ended up having to get up at 8:00 A.M. to make breakfast for the Nome team before they left.\u00a0 Erin and Jim ended up making it back the following Monday.\u00a0C.O., Jeff, and I went out crabbing on Sunday.\u00a0 We pulled our two pots, the first had one small crab and a bunch of star fish.\u00a0 The second had 3 small crabs, and a bunch of sea urchins.\u00a0 We didn’t have a chainsaw since we broke the one we were using on the previous trip, that made the process a lot more work.\u00a0 We are hoping to have it fixed for our next trip.<\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
