School is cool...

So, I'm back to work full-time, even though students won't be at school until the 19th... there's a lot to do to get ready, even without a classroom of my own. Still, I love the beginning of school... the anticipation, the fresh start...
I'm attending a Law conference this week with Lauren. We learned so much today! We were both excited and overwhelmed. There is so much to learn about education... I think Lauren and I are truly sick... we can't seem to get enough of it!
A big shout out "thank you" to Rod, who had dinner waiting for me when I arrived home this evening. He is truly a blessing in my life.
I'm finishing reading A Breaking Dawn tonight... such a fun book to read! It has been a nice break from the heavy academic reading I've been doing all summer.
I'd love to hear about some of the books others have been reading... any recommendations?

Like a virgin... blogging for the very first time

Okay, so this is actually my second attempt, as I accidentally destroyed my first blog... thank you to Kira for helping me get back on track! Check back for more family pictures and weekly journaling... my life as a Riddle is truly an enigma...
