Home Sweet Home


What a weekend! Scheduled the move for Saturday but the floors weren't done yet; so, we brought half of our things into the basement. Floors still weren't ready on Sunday; so, we moved everything from my dad's house into the garage. Finally, brought in the last of my stuff on Monday morning and moved everything up from the basement and the garage after 9am on Monday.

Happy Memorial Day!
It's been a roller-coaster, but we're in.

Looking to the Spring

Wow! The Fall semester is over and I'm psyched about the coming Spring semester. Teaching Regents is tough. Many of my students seemed to give up near the end of the semester when I thought they should have been gearing up for the exam. I'm sure test anxiety had a lot to do with that. Out of 94 students who sat for the exam, 55 passed. That's 59%. A few of them, reportedly, had meltdowns in the testing room. I'll speak with those students and try to assuage their anxiety for June. Congratulations to all of my brave students! I know it's tough.
