I’m alive, and I’m not thinking about school.

I’m alive, and I’m not thinking about school.

By Angela Watson

In case you were wondering.

Our last day was June 8, and since then, I’ve filled my time with alternating bouts of relaxation and wedding planning. The Big Day is June 27. After that, you’ll be getting a full slideshow of wedding and honeymoon pics, followed by a return to our regular educational programming. (Which I’m actually looking forward to, because I have a few fun topics and themes I plan to write about this summer.)

In the meanwhile, you can still catch me on Facebook and occasionally Twitter because if I totally withdraw from my online presence, I might shrivel up and die from a lack of internet interaction. Not blogging feels weird enough, but abandoning Facebook? Nuh-uh.

Hope each of you are enjoying your summer so far, and to those poor unfortunate souls who are STILL teaching–hang in there!! The best part of being a teacher is ahead. Well, besides making a difference in the life of a child, blah, blah, blah. Don’t tell anyone who’s not an educator that I reinforced that stereotype about summer, k?

    What a blessing you are to so many! I've searched for your wedding slideshow. Where can I see your lovely photos?
