Moving on and settling down…all at once
CountdownPosted by beth on December 11, 2011
Y’all, I have one more week in this long, long, long, long, long semester. Not bad-long, just long-long. And I’m ready for a break, but what I’m really excited about is organizing all the boxes of class materials under my bed into spiffy binders. And these spiffy binders will all fit into one box, making [...]
What I’ve Really Been DoingPosted by beth on October 13, 2011
Ok so now that everybody pretty much knows, I guess I can talk about it. I might be moving to Europe. It’s weird to type it out into the world like that. So far, it’s just been discussed privately among a few close, trusted friends and people I knew would understand and be excited with [...]
Planning AheadPosted by beth on September 21, 2011
Amaris‘s brain doesn’t always work. I don’t know if she needs more sleep or if she’s got some kind of vitamin deficiency or what, but sometimes she just ain’t all there. I can say these things about her because she knows it, and I’ve said it to her (though she probably doesn’t remember), and well, [...]
And the Bad Blogger Award Goes to…Posted by beth on September 10, 2011
I mean dag, y’all. I suck at this. I’m sorry. Here’s what’s been happening. I’ve been working. We’ve been in class for three weeks now, and my students are fabulous. As always, I love them to pieces. I’ve been having about 15 every day, and yesterday, at our 2nd registration (out of 3), I got [...]
woopsiePosted by beth on August 15, 2011
Did I really not blog all last week? Hmm. I meant to. I thought about it on several occasions. What was I doing anyway? I certainly wasn’t lesson planning, and I wasn’t doing other things on the internet because we didn’t have it yet. Maybe I didn’t blog last week because absolutely nothing happened worth [...]
I Think I’m Back NowPosted by beth on June 30, 2011
Physically, I’ve been back in the country since Sunday afternoon. But my brain is just now catching up. Y’all, I’ve been SO tired all week, and today is the first day I almost feel normal. The weekend went a little something like this: Friday Friday night, after a full day of all our stuff (kids [...]
Don’t Get ExcitedPosted by beth on April 25, 2011
I don’t want to get anyone’s hopes up or make anyone think that I have any intentions to stay in Raleigh for any significant length of time, but I will say this: I don’t hate it. Actually, there are a few things I very much love about Raleigh, or at least what I can see [...]
Aaaaaaaand stretchPosted by beth on February 17, 2011
I’m pretty much out of words for the month, so forgive me if this is short, stilted, awkward or otherwise unreadable. New Orleans was GREAT. We had a fantastic time, we had the best cheerleaders ever, we ate a lot of really good food, and we completed all 13.1 miles of the 1/2 marathon. We [...]
Mrs. Hogan Goes to RaleighPosted by beth on December 29, 2010
I know it’s not quite as Capra-esque as a visit to Washington, but having Mrs. Emily Furr Hogan herself here in my very townhouse was definitely a highlight this week. Mrs. Hogan, it seems, booked a trip to NC, was very excited to have nearly two whole weeks with her family, then got to WILKESBORO!!!!! [...]
Vacation: Day 1 – Professionalism FailPosted by beth on December 13, 2010
Well first let’s start with an update on my vacation to-do list progress. I spent the weekend with Rachel and Annabelle baking. And hooooo-boy did we bake! I think we made about 90 buck-eye balls, about the same number of pretzels with melted Rolos and pecans on top, roughly 50 Christmas wreaths, and when I [...]
