1st Day Back at Work

Today is my first day back at work.  I teach 2nd grade.  Fortunately, my student teacher is still here so, I'm not really teaching - just being here - and that's enough for this morning.

It's also warm and humid - not very comfortable in the classroom.

I'm sipping water almost constantly.

There's also a lot of questions from colleagues.  Most I'm able to answer fairly easily but I've also found myself to be a bit PMSy even though I am well past menopause.  So, I've been teary today, too.

Life is always an adventure!

I teach 2nd grade too!  Where do you teach?  How long of a leave did you take?  It was so hot and sticky in my classroom too.  Ugh!

I'm at the Asa Adams school in Orono.  I took 2 weeks and 2 days off.  My surgery was on a Thursday.

Next year, do you want to twitter with my class (and some other classes)?  It's wicked cool, very easy, and safe.

Cheers,

Debbie

congrats! sorry it was emotional for you, that will ease, Im sure. I went back today, too, although only for an hour or so, and MUCH less stressfully, as my hubby owns the business and all I do is sit and answer phones and do billing. You are doing GREAT! Have you used the blog feature here? It helps me to get my feelings out there and deal with them, sometimes just writing down the sad stuff helps. (((hugs)))

I haven't tried the blog feature yet . . . busy blogging for school. . .but I will.

Thanks for the support!  It means a lot.

Cheers,
Debbie
