Remember the "busy, busy, busy" magician in Frosty the Snowman? Well, that's how I've felt lately. Preparing for a new school year is a lot of work! It's hard to believe our summer break is about halfway over already.
I've been busy sending out the supply lists and calendars, meeting
with prospective students, returning phone calls and e-mails, and ordering all the books and supplies we'll need.
We're switching the whole school over to PACES, so I've had to rearrange filing cabinets to make everything fit in my very small office!
We also ordered ten new rolling chairs, so we'll have to get all those put together before school starts.
I was sad to see that Andy Griffith had passed away. The Andy Griffith Show is one of my favorites, and one of the very few things I even watch on TV. I never get tired of those re-runs! One of my favorite episodes is the one where Opie's friend teaches him how to throw a tantrum to get what he wants. Andy doesn't fall for it though, and even the little boy's dad catches on at the end and takes his son out to the 'good old-fashioned wood shed'.
Oh, wouldn't it be nice to have a good show like that today? It seems that most of the folks on TV nowadays need to put on some more clothes, keep the clothes on, and have their mouths washed out with soap!
I hope you all have a great week!
Take care,
~Melanie
