Blog Slacker...

Ugh... It's May......... and I am BURNT OUT. There is a reason why our school system can never switch to year-round school -and it is so the teachers don't lose it and run out of the school building screaming "I give up!". At this point in the year, the 85 hormonal seventh graders I teach are out of their ever-loving minds and climbing the classroom walls. The weather is warming up and they DON'T want to read poetry or learn about prepositional phrases (and I don't blame them because I don't really want to teach those things now either.) So let's just say I am tired and READY for a break.
I am mentioning this only because I am trying to make an excuse for why I have not been keeping up with my blog or posting pictures lately. Really- I have a valid excuse! Aside from the teacher burn out, I also came down with a nasty case of pink eye last week (yes... I said pink eye...) and our computer got a virus and was inoperable. So, that's why the blog delay. But... now I have a lot of pics for you to catch up on. So here are a few!

 Good News! Last Wednesday Bel got her cast off.

 She was a little freaked out by the "saw" they used to remove it.

She was almost sad to see it go... Now she gets a little black brace for the next two weeks. Little bones heal so fast!
