Busy as a bee...that's been my reality since school opened almost two weeks ago. Since school OPENED? Heavens! I've been busy as a bee for several WEEKS BEFORE school opened!!! I ask myself, "What would my reality have been if I had NOT done all of the prep work those weeks before school started?" I shudder, and refuse to complete that train of thought.

We're been making student ID's, testing reading levels, issuing equipment, setting up new software programs (to name a few things)...and multiply this by over 1,000 students. Mind bloggling, isn't it?

But that's OK. I love what I'm doing...and what's the alternative? Eating bon bons? Relaxing with my feet up? Visiting my grandchildren? Hmmmmm.....now THERE's a thought that would take priority over this other stuff! My granddaughter recently told her mom: "Boys have short hair. Girls don't have short hair. But I have short hair and grandma has short hair and that's Okay. Girls have earrings, and diamonds, and makeup like me." Sounds like I need to hug that sweet child...and her little brother!!! (Who's pretty amazing, too!)
