Busy week coming up. Makes me all the more ready for camp! This week I start doing home instruction for a teenage mother, I'll be teaching English and US History. It's going to be kind of on the fly, I'll meet her tomorrow at 3:30 and start teaching her from wherever her teacher left off. Kinda crazy.

Remember when we went to the bars for Sierra's 21st and checked ids and flirted with nasty guys? I do!

All camp staff is invited to participate in Wednesday Buddy Craft Day! Downside: you need to be at school early (by 8:30). Upside: you get to meet my kids and do art and have fun! Casey and I had discussed making holiday cards, but if someone has a better idea I'm totally open to it. We'll meet with their buddy class (K/1) and do fun art with them ( Read more... )
