Digging out from the junk

It's time to go back to school. Unofficially, at least, for now.

The first day back for teachers is actually a week from today, but I went back for a few hours on Monday, and then for a long day yesterday. I don't mind that I'm there having to do work, but I do mind that there's no air conditioning in my room!

Yuck.

I'm really trying to work on getting rid of stuff I don't use, and organize the paperwork I do have. I got a few new filing cabinets right when school got out, so I have more space for filing stuff, which has helped immensely. (Wow - aren't you excited, I'm finally blogging and I'm talking about filing paperwork! WOO HOO!)

I worked there by myself for a few hours, and then the yearbook editors came in to work on some of their stuff, and then the newspaper staff came in to work on the first day issue. It was nice to have the energy back in the room, and it gets me ready to start the year. We stayed until about 7 last night, since a lot of the kids are working during the day and then coming to school.

So, I think I'll putz around here for a while today, then go to school this afternoon. I'll try to get more excitement for you, blogosphere...
