Hangin' Tough

I'll go ahead and worn ya...there is not a stitch of academia in this blog post tonight.  I was a blank slate, so I'm going to go retro tonight....and I hate even calling it that, because these guys are from my time period.  I remember going to their concert and my ears ringing for 3 days afterwards!  Thanks to Missy Squirrels for giving me this idea, even though she didn't know she gave it to me.

She and I were 'talking' on Facebook tonight and I couldn't think of anything to blog about and she said, 'Just blog about something you do that is unique'.  In my head, I thought, "I'm just barely hanging in there because I am so tired.'  Well...I just decided to have some fun tonight and I've enjoyed my walk down Memory Lane.    Oh, the memories...So, here I am...barely hanging in there.

I feel like this is about what I am doing tonight...I'm Hangin' Tough.  It's a new year....new kids....new <and increased> responsibities and expectations.

So....I'm just going to do it all step by step.

Trying to teach my kids to whisper when they really seem to be yelling when they read out loud.

Everything I do I do for the good of my class, just like you.

My plan is to make sure they have all of the skills that they need to become successful.

The tough part is making sure that I am teaching everything thorough enough.

By the way, did I tell you that our school board is going to be discussing raise that was proposed by our union, but they say they don't have any money???  hhahaha  Dirty Dawgs!! 

But, no matter.

Pretty soon, I'll <Oh, just another 175 days> be singing along with this.....

But, I want you all to know that I have faith in you and what you are doing this year!

And tonight.....welll....tonight I'm just gonna crash!  So tired....

Keep on Smilin'!!
