update on things

the past month has been super busy for me. I have had company staying/visiting at my house for most every weekend since the reunion...Travis, Sarah, Carol, Joe, Alan (visiting-not staying), Andrew and Joanie. School finally ended but my really intensive class has begun at Valdosta State just this past Monday. It is like no other class I have ever taken.. It is a super concentrated writing class..we do several different kinds of writing assignments... memoirs, poetry, grant writing, administrative memo, and lord know what else... we are going to be published in an anthology-both in print and on line at the National Writing Project website.. I am the only Social Studies teacher participating in this. I cannot tell you how excited I am about this opportunity. If I disappear from the screen for the next 3 weeks or so, just know that I will surface again the first week of July.. :-)

Will you have to do new poems or can some of your ones from the past be used? Sounds like a fun and fulfilling class.
