my student teaching rock...

yes, I have been under the student teaching rock for the past two months and will be re-submerging again on Tuesday. However, this week is spring break so I'm taking abreak from lesson planning and test grading to actually be a real person! Teaching is great, I love most of my students and think so much of the wonderful teachers who are helping me everyday to become better.

At the beginning of the week, I took a short beach vacation with Anne and her girls, and one of my new teacher friends from school, Valerie. We loaded up the party van and headed down to Seabrook for a few days of needed sun and relaxing by the pool. It was great to be able to hear the ocean and breathe salty air for a few days. We stopped in Charleston before heading home and took some great pictures at the Battery- I'll post soon.

On Wednesday, Maceyfacey went with me to the spa to get our toes done. She proclaimed it was "the best spa day she had ever had" and we agreed to do it again soon! Maybe for Juniper and Michael's wedding.

Otherwise, I'm trying to keep a low profile this week and rest. I am doing some planning for our next unit at school- but not enough to activate the knot of tension that has been residing between my shoulders. After break I will start the job interviewing process which will hopefully end with me signing a teaching contract for the next school year and doing a giant happy dance to once again be gainfully employed!
