I am NOT giving up!



I am just postponing my blog redo.  
For the record, HTML is annoying, even with generous tutorials. 

I feel sheepish and a little silly about it, really.
That's what I get for making a big announcement that I am redoing my blog. 

When will I ever learn to just quietly go about my business?  
I seems I always have to do the big TA DA!   

Anyway.

I have been feverishly getting my classroom ready for tomorrow. 
Back to School Days are here again. 

I love it!  I love children with all their curiosity and wonder. 
I love their silliness and their ease at making friends. 

I love to prepare lessons that excite and engage.
I love new school supplies and even sharpening 100 pencils.

I love preparing my room, making everything perfect, 
and watching it come to life once the children fill it.

Happy Back to School, friends. 

The above is a picture I took of my new school.

HTML can be a tricky monster. I wouldn't worry at all about not having the time right now to re-do the blog. Especially when you're having so much fun with your back to school activities. Templates can wait.

Good luck in your new school year. I Hope you get some great little ones. The redo can wait.

Love your honesty :) made me smile and feel better about all the times I have done the same.

What blessed students to have a teacher that loves what she does!

No worries, I'm sure you'll figure it all out and it will be fabulous!
School again already? How can that be, summer went by way too quickly. Enjoy your new school year.

Best wishes for a great school year! HTML, I don't even know it means so I avoid it like the plague. :)

Oh, I wish you'd get rid of word verification. I don't have it, haven't had it for a LONG while, and no problems so far.

All the very best for another eventful year Relyn. You are a wonderful teacher and I am sure your students are real lucky.

Amy said...

Eeh, HTML! That's why I do Wordpress and templates all the way! :)

And I cannot believe it's back to school already! Here's hoping your new school becomes home, right from the start!

Great to see you posting again, and a very Happy Back to School to you. September is the true New Year in so many ways for me still.

I'll be happy to see your blog revamp when you're ready but in the meantime, I really love your blog the way it is!

I'm glad you're back! I've missed you. Happy back to school to you, too! We've been back since August 1 (with students). I enjoy it, too. I have a great student teacher this year, which has given me a chance to really observe what's happening in the room. I catch myself smiling as I watch them and see how enthusiastic they are. Students really do want to learn and succeed.
