I haven’t run in several days but I have been cross training. Last Friday I played tennis, Saturday I biked and Sunday I went kayaking.

I plan on getting back to a regular running schedule soon. Today was the last day of school. It was difficult saying goodbye to my 5th graders, but I am looking forward to new opportunities this fall.

Things I will miss….
- when my students giggle and wink at me after they see me talking to the young, attractive band teacher (they are always trying to marry me off)
- the way the students encourage and support each other
- "light bulb moments" during a lesson when I hear a student say "Miss. N I get it now"
- the way the students sit quietly, completely captivated by a read aloud story (and of course I do the voices for all the characters) :)

I turned in my classroom key and picked up my new office key at the town hall, where I will start my summer job tomorrow. I wish you a healthy, happy summer!
