September's Almost Gone

Well, I'm happy to say that I have almost made it through September. A whole month of teaching already done. The first trimester is always the hardest for me. In many ways I'm lucky. Once I've figured out the first trimester and what my curriculum is, the other two trimesters are just a repeat of the same. Most classroom teachers have to keep teaching new things all year. Of course, I do have 6 grade levels. Probably all come out about the same in the wash.

It's been over a year since I've truly dated anyone. Keep putting myself out there. Still mostly wonder if I just haven't met the right guy yet. Not like my standards are crazy high. I just want to really like the way I feel when I'm around the person. Not really much more to it than that. Still waiting and remaining open to the possibilities.

Meanwhile the weather is changing. Feels dreary and makes everyone want to curl up indoors. I'm going to see a play alone tonight. Somehow also seems appropriate for the weather. Better go get dressed and looking presentable.

I'll leave you with a song for the weather.
