IT begins...

So Monday is the first day of the Expanding the Boundaries course and by all indications the Gods are not with me. I brought home my laptop and couldn't log on- the directory is unavailable- do you think I knew what that meant? It took me a while to find this blog and figure out how to write this post. Oh and I have no idea how to link my blog to WTH's.
The good news is... I always want to end with good news... wait for it, wait for it
I'm actually doing it right now so I can't be completely inept.

I'm trying this all out 1. to see if I can successfully do what seems very easy for a number of people and 2. to discover how interesting my random thoughts are to the rest of the world. WTH seems incredibly adept at all of this and if I'm going to be at all successful teaching kids to do this I better have a clue! Maybe the Patman & Blinky nightmares will stop and I'll enter the 08-09 school year with some confidence.
I am wondering what I got myself into in just about every aspect of my life! Caring for mom, changing grade levels, taking the course, being a good mom... never ending. I would really like a day to myself but that is incredibly selfish and completely out of the question. Even if I had it I'd probably waste it by moving from room to room uninspired by what I see and unable to get my act together. I think I'll go for a walk and clear my head...
