The first job I selected for the fourth district I am now in may still be coming, but the second job was a two-day job for 8th grade language arts. It was at the school where I know a few of the kids from my church. As it turns out the school is only about […]
No one as far as I know asked the question posed in the title, but today I certainly felt that way, as the nerd that is, not the one asking the question. I suspect my brother felt the same way. You see, we went to the funeral of someone we have never met. As such,

Wednesday was one of those specials days. That is, subbing for a gym teacher. But first, let me talk about the days before this one. Monday, I took a full day job at one of the furthest schools from me. It was a bit of a mixed bag as well as a slight disappointment. I

It’s been a while since I wrote a church post, so here we go. A while back I mentioned the 4th and 5th grade moving into a new room. The old one was getting kind of cramped and so when the church redesigned the area in the front of the church, adding a mini-café and
Thursday was an interesting day. I subbed for the gifted teacher at a middle school. Fir some reason this teacher has only five classes instead of the usual six. Two each of 7th and 8th grades, one 6th grade. Now what happens when the reason for the teacher’s absence is because she took the 8th
