Back to School!

Well, it's that time of year again. I am back to school tomorrow. Brian goes back next Monday. I can't believe the summer is over already. I'm not quite mentally ready but I don't really have a choice. I transferred schools to the new middle school in our district. It is a beautiful school but not all the things we ordered are in and some of the things that arrived were not the right things. For instance, the pianos that arrived are the wrong ones so we don't really want to use them since we will be sending them back so I am starting choir tomorrow without a piano. It should be interesting. :) All in all though, it could be a lot worse. I have chairs for my students to sit on and the air conditioning works so we can make it through for a while. Anyway, I am looking forward to a good year and the team of teachers I work with are all wonderful so it is already has the makings of a good year.

My previous school was 20 miles away, one direction. Now it is only 8 miles. It is a wonderful change. I drove home from school the other day and was surprised at how fast I got home. I used to be able to call Kjirsti in the morning and have a decent conversation because I had a 40 minute drive. Now, those calls will be down to 10 minutes or so. It was a really good set-up because she is a few hours later so she was already in the middle of her morning when I called. Oh well, life is full of adjustments. Well, I will try to update again soon but again, no promises.
