Ok guys, so I have had a nice week off, and my husband has been home from Iraq, to enjoy it with me. I am totally thankful for this. He will be leaving this Thursday, and I have to start back to school tomorrow... :(

Is it normal to get the "spring blues" and not want to go back. We start SAT's in two weeks, and before you know it, school will be out. I feel so un-motivated right now.... I love my work, just have become lazy over the past week.

We've got one more week to go until our spring break. I'm hoping I can make it!! I really need a break this year. We haven't gotten our typical number of snow days this year, so we've been in school pretty much the entire time from MLK day!

I, too, dread going back. When we get back, it's always a mad rush for testing reviews, and then two weeks of testing, and then three weeks to keep the kids from driving us crazy because they turn off after testing!

That's wonderful that your husband got to be in for your break.

spring break

It is totally normal to not want to go back. We are just getting a little taste of summer bliss. I also go back tomorrow and we start SAT in two weeks. I just know that after SAT it will be smooth sailing till the end. :) You know if my husband were headed back to Iraq I would probably go back Monday and Tuesday and then take a couple of personal days off with him. If that is a possibility I say go for it. Anyhow I hope you have a great first day back. I have a feeling I am going to regret leaving so quickly that last Friday and not going back since. I will definetly be winging it!

Hi, I see you are from Alabama. I live in Huntsville, well Madison actually. Good luck to you going back this morning.... I have had my coffee, and am energized (for now anyway..ha)

I am taking Wednsday and Thursday off to spend the last few days with my husband. I have used my "personal days" but plan on being "sick" these days.

Smooth selling, after SAT's... we can do it!!
