First time for everything!

Hi all!

Ok, This is the first time I have ever tried blogging! I actually am sitting here listening to a podcast called Manic Mommies and typing my first blog. I can't wait to tell my students how tech savvy I am! LOL

Today is a COLD day in Wisconsin. My work and the boys' school have been cancelled because the temperature is 9 below zero with wind chills up to 40 below zero! It is seriously cold here. Gotta love Wisconsin !

As a general update, I am working full time this year and loving it. I worked very hard this fall with two new classes, one of which was a writing class. I felt like I never stopped grading papers. Right now, I am teaching a business writing class. (I have no idea what I am doing- I am team teaching luckily with a business teacher.) I am also teaching English 9 and we are studying Romeo and Juliet.

Chris also loves his job. He got a promotion a few months ago, and he thoroughly enjoys the role he is playing in the company now. I don't think we are looking to move any time soon. Chris is happy at work, so that is a good thing!

All the boys are great. We are finishing up a basketball camp with the big guys. Baseball camp starts in a few weeks. Then, soccer will pick up in April. The kids really hold out for the summer where golf comes back into play as well.

All right, since I don't have any more news, I will close! I look forward to reading your messages as well.
