It never stops..

Don't exactly remember that last communication. I think you know that I moved back to LA. What a great day to be rid of that chapter. I am in a Technology Magnet HS teaching English. We start next week. I could be more excited if we had textbooks or if my room was ready...no Novell login, no Bb login, etc., small things, but big things to me that will keep me working to catch up. I went bact to TH last week to get the last of my things out (Katrina-sogged papers that I didn't want to take to Baton rouge, almost full circle), clean it out, etc. We had training from Memorial Day (Tu) thru July 11, so I've only had about 2 weeks off. And of course, that does not include the "manadatory" teacher orientation, which we were not paid for. Yippee. I should settle down in about Nov. ... the weather is laser-burning hot here. It's been over 90 degrees since we moved here on May 19. My mom is doing well. She doesn't want to go out in the heat yet. Hope all is well with you and yours. I'd like to collaborate if by chance you know of anyone who wants to do with some inner city kids in the south. I am teaching English 9.
