My wonderful mother came and helped me today. Which was important. Why? My school bug bombed all the classrooms (they had to, all of the classrooms open to outside, easy access for bugs!). Which means I found a lot of dead cockroaches. Gross, I know! I can't handle those nasty little buggers, even dead. Every time I found one, I shrieked. So my mom cleared them for me. Mom handled that like such a champ!
She also cleaned and wiped down all my cabinets and helped me organize my room. Seriously, I'm so lucky to have her. End the gush fest about my momma. :)
My classroom is coming together. Crazy how much easier it gets the longer you've been teaching. My newer teammates are freaking out about their rooms, so I'm trying my best to help them out as much as I can.
Each day I'm at the school reminds me that even though it was a hard choice to leave CRES, it was the right choice.
Tomorrow, I'm going to set up my classroom library and J is coming on his lunch break to help. Isn't that so nice? Giving up his free time to come help. I'm going to use his height to finish my bulletin boards. Being short is such a problem sometimes.
I'll post pictures once I am done. Linking up for:
If you're new, leave me a comment! I promise I talk about a lot of other things besides teaching. Pinky swear :)
Yay, I was at school all day today too!

My blog is not a teaching blog either, but man, it's where I spend my days! I can't not talk about it! I'll probably put up some pictures next week. You know, before the children arrive and mess everything up..:)
