Nearing the end..

School is officially winding down. I cannot believe that my first year of teaching is almost done! I feel so accomplished. There is so much that I want to do this summer; work and home related. On top of waiting tables also I hope that I get it all done. I can just see me sleeping until noon every day and being a bum until I go wait tables, then wake up on August 1st and have nothing on my list done. I need to get motivated and stay that way!

Seriously though I feel like we have gotten a lot done around the house since we moved in in June. There is still so much to do. It's kinda crazy that you put so much work into a rent house, only to leave it and start all over again when you leave. But I think it's worth it to make your home your own. We'll probably stay in our house for a couple more years, so I want it to be a comfortable place that we really do love.

Seven days of school left. The kids are so antsy and unruly. Little do they know that the teachers are more ready for summer break than they are! I took three boys to the principals office yesterday for laughing in my face. Literally, 9 year old boys laughed in my face when I told them to stop talking. Ugh. Our future. First time I've ever taken kids to the office. I don't care if we only have two weeks of school left, they aren't going to disrespect adults for the next two weeks. And then as if they didn't learn anything from the experience (shocking), two of the boys had to go back later for a paddling for bad behavior again! One day they might learn but I won't hold my breath until that time comes.
