Wow, So for those of you who don't know I am an elementary school teacher. This usually means that I get summers off. However this summer I was taking classes rather than relaxing, and oh dear, it seems as if my summer is fast approaching its end. I technically have three days left of freedom, but seeing as those days are Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, it is more of a weekend of freedom. And I have a mandatory meeting from 9-3 tomorrow. Did I mention that I still need to paint my new classroom and find four bookshelves before the kids arrive? Oy! All this work is very much worth it though. I have met with a few of the families of my new students and it is very exciting. I am thrilled about starting a new year.
Moishe house has been an absolute pleasure during these summer months. It seems that our base participants like to eat, and so we have been hosting one schmorgisborge after another. Next one is a Shabbat dinner and I am loosening my belt buckle for the occasion.
