Well, half the week is done, and yet I feel like it’s Monday. I traveled out of here Monday morning and got to Brevig around 10:30. It was right to work, so the time went quickly. We had some weather\/flight issues and ended up not leaving Brevig until 7:00 last night. We had to stay in Nome and fly back to Unalakleet this morning. You never can be sure about travel up here!<\/p>\n
It was good to see AnnMarie & C.O., Paul, and Mollie. I got a bunch of hugs and hellos from the kids and quite a few requests for Bill and my return to teach in Brevig. Last year we were, “real ugly teacher” and “you don’t know how teach” – but everyone said the minute you leave you were the best teacher to ever set foot in that school. And so it goes. I will admit that I truely enjoyed seeing the kids, but I’ve also never felt better about the decision to leave. That was an emotionally draining place!<\/p>\n
I returned to the apartment to find Sunday night’s enchilada pan soaking in a sink of cold soapy water. (That’s the grossest!) I can’t get stuff done around here when it’s a mess, so I cleaned up a bit, got the trash to the baler, and went to the post office. My new book (for work) came in the mail. Now I need to quick read it and put together a power point for our upcoming Greater Northwest Meeting.<\/p>\n
I spent this afternoon (washing a million loads of clothes, and…)getting some info ready for my Boise training. The problem with me and the internet is that I get extremely sidetracked! I started looking up research resources on tutoring and ended up finding a bunch of stuff I want to keep for when I return to the classroom. My final stop, however, was on a recipe site for calzones. Guess what we’re going to try for dinner. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
Again, a wearing part of travel is not being able to talk to anyone from home. So – I spend my down time missing you all! \ud83d\ude09 I’ll let you know how the calzones turn out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
