I am a Special Education Teacher. My blog chronicles my experiences as a business professional turned teacher, a mom who adores her daughter, and an individual who loves to write about education, current events, my family life, and sometimes funny stories on how venturing midlife into a new career as a teacher has changed me forever. You’re bound to see me wander from one topic to the next. So...what's your story?

Time to Hit the Bricks....
Wow...now I gotta get back in the groove of work again...hmm. One of the many benefits to being a teacher is when the kids are off, so am I. I like the idea of having a summer vacation. Wow I haven't had one of those since high school. Then there is the downside...going back. The first week of winter break I was up and out of bed between 6:00 am and 7:00 am every morning; but as my vacation paddled along I started spending my time off surfing the net and preparing for one of my teacher certification exams that I will be sweating through next week. So....by the time the second week rolled around I was going to bed at 1:00 am or later in the morning, and getting up at noon...Wow those reminiscent college days....wait a minute...gotta go back farther then that. I meant high school days. What was I thinking. I was raising a kid and working by the time I got to college. The only person sleeping in on those days was my daughter. Anyway, I have to admit a part of me is looking forward to going back tomorrow, but not the part that has been enjoying staying up late nights. Since my free time is diminishing...guess I can't play on my computer as much either.
