i've become ocd aobut checking dates-wish i had been back in may

the alarm went off this morning while it was still dark out and chaco said,"make it stop! ewwww, make it go away!"(as he burrowed further down under the cover)... i forgot to warn them last night before we went to bed.

so i got to school and got started with the most important project of the day.

seemed january-ish bulletin board

hopeful for snow days...in april or may...after good friday!

oh, and did you realize that this year we get 29 days in february? leap year!!

staff development today was pretty good-the lady who presented our developmental asset presentation liked to use the fill-in-the-blank (CLOZE) method, and thank goodness she didn't wait to long for us to answer before she just went ahead and supplied the answer. i wonder if she even realized that she was doing it, or if it was a habit from her teaching days.

i took chicken out of the freezer last night and now i have to go ahead and make some dijon chicken in the crockpot-so i can use it all and not mess around; it's a super easy recipe, so hopefully it will taste pretty good too. yum.

so i don't know if any of you remember the moment i regret most from 2011...when i missed theresa's wedding...well, since then, i have been extra careful in checking and rechecking my dates. so, every day since i printed it off, i look again...just to be sure!

makin' me ocd!

so, it really is tomorrow, and unfortunately i won't get to welcome my kids back on their first day, but the upside (whether i bomb it or not), i get to wear jeans and be comfortable...and i get to come home for lunch and spend the rest of the day not worrying about taking a test!

well, that said, i am off to do one last round!
