Late Summer Magic


Summer has come to a close yet again.
The greenery remains as the season starts to shift. 



 










































Checked into my IKEA Swedish dorm room.


WOW, Dollar Tree... REALLY? What's the safe word?





Huge thanks to my friend Steve for helping me install 
 two light fixtures in my home. This one was a nightmare.

DOLLY PARTON FOREVER






























That thing when you’re casually lying on the floor in the hallway outside your classroom having a TOTALLY professional conversation with your colleagues about classroom protocols and a colleague rolls up and snaps your picture. I’m gonna use this for my professional practices documentation log. Also, I’m so glad I’ve reached a point in my life and career where I can lie on the floor mid conversation and nobody seems to care. My parents would be SO proud if they saw this.


YEAR 27… LET’S DO THIS!
There was a roll of caution tape among the boxes of new art supplies when I walked in to set up my classroom today. Should I be concerned? Also: This is my 27th year at RHS, during which I will turn 54 (in January). This means that one half of my time on Earth has been spent working here with all of my awesome colleagues (past and present) and amazing kids, whose numbers (at this point) have reached well into the thousands. Here’s to another year of magic. BRING IT!
