Preparing

I spent 1/2 of Mon and all of today, Tues, preparing for the class I will be teaching. Still lots to do. And I worked on stuff off and on the last month. It is actually fun to do. I wish I had gotten my degree in elementary ed; I think I would have enjoyed it more.

Teaching

Yesterday I subbed for the teacher I did the maternity leave for back in Jan and Feb. She has asked me before to sub when she will be gone. I enjoy going to her classroom; orderly and well-organized. Plus, I just like the interaction with the kids. She does 3rd grade and that's a fun age. I'm looking forward to doing the next maternity leave, which begins July 27, with that same 3rd grade team. Holly Springs is my fav school, that's a great age, and the team are so helpful.

Garden

The deer and/or the bunny rabbits are eating our garden. They have eaten all the leaves off our cucumbers, and some of the cukes themselves. They have eaten leaves from the zucchini plants and zucchinis. Now they are eating our almost ripe tomatoes. We had chicken wire around the cukes, but the plants got too big. Not sure what to do now; we do wish they would leave us some of the garden to eat ourselves!

So sad

Paige, Stella, and Scott left yesterday. They were here for 1 week and we had a great time; unfortunately, I'm always sad when people leave.
I have pics to put up but for some reason, my pics won't upload. I wish someone could solve this for me.

These are some of my 4th of July decorations

Not really. These are Paige's that she sent me and I thought it would be funny for her to see me calling her decos as mine.
