The end is near...my summer vacation will officially be over in just a few short hours. I will miss it. It has been great to sleep late. I've loved starting each day with time to enjoy my coffee and newspaper. Not having a daily schedule has been a wonderful luxury. There's definitely a lot to be said about the benefits of rest and relaxation.
However, I know that it's time for me to get back to work and get ready for a new school year. I accomplish much more with a schedule and a routine. I've missed laughing with my school friends and hearing their stories. If only I could find a way to avoid the dreaded alarm clock, life would be good.
This will be my 30th year in education which is very hard to believe. When I started my career, I planned to teach for 5 years and then get a real job! It's funny how life takes its twists and turns and still you end up where you were supposed to be all along. Guess I'm getting philosophical in my old age!
