Whew! My life has been a whirlwind! Several wonderful and some not so wonderful things have occurred in the past couple of weeks.
First the good things. I finished my University of Phoenix classes – woohoo! Now, I can get certified to do what I have been doing for the past 3 [...]
I’m still struggling with edublogs issue, but have been taking notes on leecountyitf.wikispaces.com
Lots of great sessions and I have meet many people. Even seen some of the “big guys” in IT. I’ve even learned how to Twitter!
The conference is huge. I am just now figuring out the floor schematic. You enter from [...]
Tomorrow I switch hats and become a student again. I begin my ITF certification classes. One way to jump right into the river with both feet is to take 2 classes at a time – what was I thinking??

I wasn’t too worried about the number of [...]
Is it me or does anyone else have a problem with the millions of dollars the presidential candidates are raising? The last count I heard was over $100 million. One Hundred Million Dollars! I don’t care what your political affiliation is, this should be disturbing to you.
Do I care that these people have [...]
Great thinking post from Kimberly Moritz at the Leader Talk blog. She addresses frustrations and the blues that many teachers seem to get about this time of year. I know it always hit me hard about this time. Maybe it had something to do with the short days and lack of sunlight, [...]
Splat! That was me hitting the wall on Friday night. Hubby and I were having our normal Friday night supper with my school friends. The H.O.T.’s (husbands of teachers) were sitting at their end of the table discussing important stuff (I think I heard North Carolina and Kentucky basketball) and the [...]
