Friday Overload

Wow it’s been a long week with in-service at my school coming to a close. So many new teachers because our school grew so much this year. I feel like I’m on overload with all the information they shared with us. It’s gonna be a great year!

I pass so many people in my day as I work. The renewed look I have on life makes me think of those people I pass day in and day out. What if tomorrow I couldn’t talk, hear or...
