Hey Angie, I hope you're still surviving at least. Don't worry about all those things that you were told never to do or that you vowed never. As a teacher, you find out that sometime, that's the way it goes. I remember I had a college professor who thought it was a mortal sin to drink water in front of a classroom of little kids, but I went into my student teaching and my wonderful mentor teacher did it all the time. Now I do it fairly frequently, when you're the one that talks all day, when you're the one that walks around all day, when you're the one shuffling through all the papers all day; give yourself a break. Have the kids come to you, make a race out of it, call it exercise for them and take a load off. I'm in my third year, second year at the same school and things are a lot easier, not perfect, but more consistent with my plan.

We'll have much to talk about at Christmas :)
