I finally went back to school. Cue Darth Vader music now.
Tuesday I stopped in to see if I could get a key to my new classroom, previously I had been told that I couldn't until all the teachers came back. Officially the first day back is August 30th. Imagine my surprise to see a sign-in sheet on the secretary's desk with almost every teacher's signature on it... in fact, most of the dates listed were from the previous week. Great! Now I look like a total slacker. Just the impression I wanted to give our entirely new administration.
On the plus side, I did finally get my key.
Yesterday was spent unpacking boxes. Mounds of boxes. And a stack of notebooks approximately 2 feet high. My mother's office generously donated a huge box of supplies to me, my brother and Aunt for the coming year. I gave a lot to my aunt because she really can't afford to buy any on her own... and I've got to shop for something (total shopaholic). While unpacking, I discovered a shocking abundance of notebooks and pens. I gave 30 to another teacher and let the counselors know that anyone who in need could "shop" my closet.
Unfortunately, I'm missing more than a few things. Like the year long plan I made last spring... I'm hoping that they'll turn up today.
