Next year I get a tablet laptop for use in my room at school. I got one this week to play with in the meantime and learn how to use. This post is coming to you from that laptop. I love playing with new technology.
Ben got his first High Point Trophy last weekend. It was a little disgraceful to watch him swim with all those swimmers who only swim during summer season. There wasn't one full year swimmer at the meet and Ben just blew them out of the water. (pics later when I get back home).
I just learned last week that the town I live in has an opening for a math position at the high school. I applied for it and have an interview this weekend. Even though it would likely be a good move financially, I am just not sure that I want to switch school because I really enjoy where I teach. It has totally loaded me with guilt. I am hopeful that the school will be good to teach at and have the same level of technology that I am getting at my current school so that I could accept the job without feeling to nervous about the whole thing. I am mostly nervous about hating the people I teach with. I am not sure I could take twenty years with people I don't get along with. I am also worried about teaching in the same tiny town I live in. I am not sure I want to live in a fishbowl. Anyways, I guess I will just wait and see.
In the meantime I am working solidly on the baby blanket for one of the twins. We find out tomorrow what the twins are -- boys/girls and identical/fraternal. Then I will plan the second blanket. I also started on my mom's silk wrap. I have had the silk yarn for quite a while but had just not been working on it.
So.....good luck with the interview this weekend? Hopefully you'll get it and the people will be fine. There's usually someone everywhere though.
Go, Ben! Practice clearly makes more perfect.
