The first major change I have been preparing for was my wedding. Jason and I were married on June 20th at the Morton Arboretum in Lisle, IL. The weather was a bit unreliable but mother nature pulled out a rainbow for us at one point during the ceremony. It was truly the "Best Day Ever!"
The next change was in my career. I had interviewed at a pair of schools toward the end of the year but none of the positions were quite right. I had then received a call to interview at a high school but was unable to because of field trips/last week of school. Shucks....
Well wouldn't you know that they ran another round of interviews the next week and they wanted me to come in. I did a first round and the next day did a second with the principal. Needless to say, I nailed it and was offered the job! While all this was great, this was the week before my wedding and I was a bit busy at that point. So, 1 day before my wedding, I was at human resources signing paperwork so for new job!

I will be teaching Algebra 1 and Algebra 2. Honestly, I am terrified but I am confident I will do fine and after the first day, I will feel so much better. In the meantime, this means I have to pack up my room and move. I am a supply/manipulative/pen/book/stuff hoarder. I was at school for 3 hours accessing the situation. Final decision: Not good! A few more hours, more packing tap and boxes should be just what I need to finish.

Good news, I have my own classroom. Better news, I have an office space too! The possibilities are endless and places to store things, infinite.
What I still wonder is how do you make the decision what to keep, what to pitch and what to leave behind? IT IS SO HARD!
