Moving!
In case you were wondering, flip flops are not a good footwear choice for the day you’re moving your classroom back home. My feet hurt. My classroom possessions fit into about 20 boxes, and about 6 fit into the car at a time… it’s been an adventure type of day.
So glad all of my records are done (not glad I had a “checker” who actually thoroughly checked them and discovered that I put the wrong number of days in the school year on EVERY card! Enter fine tip sharpie!) and my room is all packed. Now it’s just down to making some copies for the new teacher, schelping stuff home (incidentally, schlep is my new favorite verb. Jeni, please don’t tell me it’s a curse word in Yiddish), and getting dolled up for our Oscar night themed end of the year/retirement party. Whee!
THEN IT’S TIME TO GO TO CALIFORNIA TO SEE SOME OF MY FAVORITE PEOPLE (and my favorite person–my hubby I’ve missed for two weeks!). I’M SO EXCITED THAT I’M EVEN USING ALL CAPS AND I KNOW IT’S RUDE AND I DON’T CARE!!!
(Oh yeah, and for those who are interested, we’re flying to Seattle (ONE WAY!!) on June 23rd.)

I screwed up my attendance too. Nobody explained “assumed attendance” until it was quite a bit too late. Actually, i did it wrong BOTH semesters. I fixed the second one, and got it right on the cumulative cards. Sigh. the things they forget to tell us…
we do NOT have checkers, and that sounds like an okay idea… sortof.
What are you copying for the new teacher? That seems awfully nice!

Yay! I’m so excited to see you!
And “schlep” is not a curse word. It is fabulous and descriptive.

And yay for an Oscar-themed party to cap it off - I want pictures!
Can’t wait for the 23rd!
