My New School

I am halfway done with my classroom. I still have some art supplies that have not come in yet. School will start on August 11th. I will not start school until a week later because of my knee. Hope everyth

Just Starting My Blog

I am new to the blog world. I hope this is fun. I have enjoyed looking at Corene and Mariah's (my sister's)blogs. So I thought I would give this a try.

So lets see.... what have I been up to?

I finally had my knee surgery on June 20th and will be in my straight leg knee brace for six weeks. I had two meniscus tears, dislocated my knee 4 times and some frayed cartilage. When my leg brace gets off I will have physical therapy for 10-12 weeks 3 times a week. It will cost $40 dollars each time I go! Expensive! We all know where my tax return is going. It is so hard to not bend my leg or just get up and walk around. I have had to ask a lot of people for help. It is kind of a pain.

I just had two roomates move into my house. They will be here for about a month. One of them was a teacher friend that I taught with at the high school. It is nice to get some roomates even for the short period of time that they will be staying. They have already been so helpful with my gimp leg.


I was able to go to my brand new school today and see my classroom. I am excited! It looks just like my school that I was at last year. As of right now we only have 350 students signed up for the school year. That is exciting since I had almost 800 students last year. Hopefully, I will have more prep time and actually like the school. I can't believe that the summer is almost over already.
