Well, the summer has finally come to a close...I know, I know...no whining allowed! Y'all please remember us as we get started back on a new year. We have two new staff in the Elementary Unit and we'll find out today what our teaching assignments will be. I know that my schedule is changing a little but I don't know how much. According to our school calendar this year, we have 3 breaks for the entire year: 2 days at Thanksgiving, 11 days at Christmas and the week for Spring Break. So that kind of sucks...It's amazing how much difference those days here and there make. I'm making a commitment to myself this year though, that I'm not going to work myself to death. As we start back on our first day of Teacher Inservice today, I'm reminded of last year's focus: Simplicity, Harmony, and Balance. I personally did not achieve what I would have liked to in those areas, but I did grow and see change and I believe that is the important thing. That is going to be an unspoken mantra for me...to achieve that balance in all things. Not the easiest thing to do when you're a perfectionist with a need to excel, but a very worthwhile goal and one that I can see slowly beginning to make a change in myself. Have a great day all! Love you, Becky

You will do great Becky! Give yourself a break and relax and do what you do best.....teach I'm thinking of you today and sending you many good thoughts. We've been without power and telephone service since 11:00 Monday night and they don't know when it will be restored. I am back at work today but dealing with power/phone issues from here. We, thankfully didn't have any real damage, but a lot of trees and debris. We spent the night in Oneonta with Pam's sister last night and so I am all out of sorts today because my routine has been interupted this morning. Not exactly my dream beginning to my new job but it will get better! You take care and I will talk to you soon Kim
