I am SO glad about you feeling comfie at the new school. I know that was weighing on you. YAY for good news.

Isn't it funny how living in Texas makes you feel that rain is a Really Good Thing? I too get happy when it rains now.

Edit: I love Scandal, too!

Wow, that high school sounds like a big change from the setting where you've been teaching in recent years! A challenge, but a good one! Glad you're excited about the change and your new students will be lucky to have you.
