Well, I did it. I survived the first day of school. And it was fine! Imagine that.
It was a short day and each period was abbreviated. 35 minutes goes by really fast!
Tomorrow will be longer and it will feel longer and I’ll have a much better idea of how this year is going to feel in 24 hours.
But right now I’m glad that I got through the first day. I learned a couple important lessons. most importantly that 15-25 minutes is not much time at all before classes start! Today I totally lost track of time and if zero period hadn’t started later than usual, I would have been five minutes late for it! Zero period is going to take some getting used to.
I’m happy that tomorrow we don’t have any meetings. We’ve had them every day so far this week and I am tired of being talked at.
First day down. 180+ something days to go.
Hang in there! How are your kids doing? Does your son like his teacher this year?
How is your daughter doing? Have a good week
HURRAH!!!!! Day one down and you are adjusting and moving forward. Happy for all of you. Hope rest of week is also smooth and that your own children are moving forward happily with their schools!
