Starbucks with Madeline

 -9 this morning. Madeline and I drove to Sun Prairie to get Starbucks. Yes there is a Starbucks in Stoughton but she wanted to come to Sun Prairie. We had a little breakfast along with our excellent but expensive coffee. How soon until Spring?

Thanksgiving Reflection

 It was a good Thanksgiving. I am grateful for my new job. It is going well so far. I still miss Harry. I am grateful for my family and all of our blessings. Hopefully Xmas does not drive me crazy this year lol. 

Time

 Time does help but I will never forget Harry. I think of him daily. Seeing his pictures and videos does help. Captain has joined our family and already brought us much joy. Losing a cat early sucks. 

You owe me a head but

 We said goodbye to our sweet Little Man Harry today. I am devastated. My heart is broken. He was one of the few who loved me unconditionally.  You will always be with me and I hope time can help because this hurts bad. When I see you again you owe me a head but. I love you Harry Monthie and will love you forever. 

So long Carl Azuz

 Stunned to learn the news that Carl Azuz is leaving his job as the host of CNN10. His puns and energy were amazing. You will be missed Carl. 

Back to School

 I've had six days of training for my new job. My classroom is overall ready. Getting to know the staff. I feel so much happier at this new job so far. I will not miss teaching Science. I've given up on the Brewers. Ready for football season.  We continue to binge watch Chuck. Great show. 

New favorite tv show

 I finally got around to watching the tv show Chuck and can I just say that it is awesome!!! If you have watched the show you should get the joke. 

August

 I feel summer slipping away. I've been going to school to get ready for my new job.  Molly also has a new job at a Mexican restaurant in town. So far she likes it. Jen and I bought a spare fridge that should hopefully be in tomorrow. I continue to work on my second book. 

So who reads this?

If you are a former student of mine and reading my blog please say hello. Or if I even know you please say hello.  

Dog Days of Summer?

 We are at the end of July. I love summer and of course never want it to end, but I am excited about getting back to work. I'm also excited about Packer football. I hope everyone is having a great summer!!!!

New Classroom

 Started moving into my new classroom. Molly helped me take stuff today. I feel like it is my first year of teaching all over again! Very excited!!!!!! 

Beans

 Having a smoothie with Maddie at beans n creme. She has her temps and is currently picking on me because I told her I have a blog. 

Back from DC

 Returned from our long trip from Washington D.C.  Finally saw the Spy Museum and Monticello. We had a great time but are exhausted. This was my fourth visit to D.C.  We also saw Top Gun 2 with Molly even though I had seen it before. 

Madison here I come...

 Got the call today that I'm teaching in Madison this fall. I'm very excited about that. So long Sun Prairie. It was an interesting 20 years. 

The hunt continues

 The hunt for a new job continues. It is exciting and scary at the same time. We are getting glimpses of warm weather but wish I wish it would be more consistent. Then again no more snow would be a good thing. 

New Batman movie

 Went and saw Batman with Molly. It was really good. My favorite Batman to date. Molly really enjoyed it as well. 

Finally a weather cancellation!

 No school tomorrow. We are apparently getting a big ice storm. It is rare when they announce no school the night before. I'm looking forward to sleeping in and drinking coffee tomorrow. 

Counting the months

 There are no words to describe how excited I am for a change at work. I will miss my team but it is definitely time for a change. I like that we are getting done early as well. Bring on summer!!!!! My movie room is also coming along nicely. 
 Winter break is ending. I just want May to get here. Very excited about leaving my current school. The coronavirus needs to be over. Will the Packers win a super bowl? Will Rodgers be back next year? Only time will tell.
