Yes, I'm still alive. Are you??

Hello, all, and happy April!

So much for keeping up with the blog, huh? I know, I'm hopeless!

I've heard from some of you, but haven't written back. I keep thinking that I'll do it when I have the time to devote to you that you deserve, but...

Yes, I know I need to update information for people- please email me with updates. I will put them on this weekend. Are we still on for Charles' shindig in May? Let me know, guys, and I'll try to not be so lame!

Thanks and lets chat!

What's up in the new year?

So here's the update from me...

Did you know that it is actually quite difficult to catch snowflakes on your tongue while driving a convertible? Hey, I had to try... managed to get one or two. Heated seats are a glorious invention!

School life is going well. The small-town feel works well for me, as I don't have anyone breathing down my neck telling me what to do. It's nice to work in a district that actually treats its teachers as if they know something. My learning curve is way up, but I'm having a great time.

Just when I thought I was finished coaching and I could have a private ceremonial LEGO melting, my little geek squadron pulled a coup and made the state championship tournament, which means another month of living la vida LEGO.

It will be a difficult time for my building going back to work tomorrow. One of our sixth grade teachers, who was in remission from cancer, suffered a brain anurism (sp?) and passed away on Christmas eve. She was an icon in the school and community, and it's going to be rough on everyone for awhile.  Very sad.

That's pretty much the rundown of life right now. How about you all?

Asta la vista, baby!

The funny thing is I have a visual image of you driving in the snow with the top down on your car. What a great time you must have had.

love the idea that life is beautiful although I think this must be especially true when cruising around in the gadget mobile in the snow :)
