So Close!

Two more days, and three more hours of conferences and this girl is on Spring Break.  In the last three weeks, I have navigated my sophomores through thier state tests, have graded 4 sets of practice essays, taught my freshmen how to make a real works cited (not on easybib.com), almost gotten them through their first persuasive essays for class, gotten articles ready for the next issue of The Bagpiper (Tattler if you're a Longinotti) so we can layout after break, taught my journalism students to do a photo cutout, finished girls basketball season without going insane (8 girls who have never touched a basketball before 6 weeks ago does not make for a competitive season), managed to win one game, and get within three points on two-huge accomplishment, and navigated the joy that is the high school conference.

This girl is tired and ready to have a vacay!
Hmm, maybe a trip to the zoo should be on the list!

I will spend the beginning of break relaxing with the fam at home and doing some reading for fun, and knitting, then mom and I are heading to Seattle on Thursday to visit family and have some fun.  On my list are getting a tattoo from Pete, delivering some books to four of my favorite little cousins, knitting with Aunt Sue, and helping set up the booth for Paradise Fiber.  Should be a great couple of days.  Happy Spring everyone!
