Keep Calm and Carry On... A Quick Venting Session

I feel like the last three weeks since Christmas break have been insane!  I think a big factor is that this week will be our first full week of school since before the break.  Amazingly, we haven't had any snow days yet and our days off have all been scheduled.  It's been difficult to get into routines again with short weeks.  I feel bad for my student teacher trying to get into the swing of things as well when we're off schedule so much.  I keep telling her that she's definitely learning the fine art of being flexible!  Hopefully we don't get any snow in the next two weeks as those are full weeks before days off for inservices and conferences.  *sigh*  And all the while, I am trying to get my students ready for assessments in March...  I have a feeling I'm going to need a mental health day when all of this is over!

I have a cheery yellow "Keep Calm and Carry On" sign that I picked up a Target a few years ago hanging on the wall in my bedroom.  I'm pretty sure I need another one to hang behind my desk at school...
