What a week!!! I am going to place blame with Hurricane Isaac for my absence of posting. Monday, August 27th was my first day without power, and Friday, August 31st was my last day without power. That's right~~5 days of no lights, AC, Internet, telephone (except cell), and television. School was closed from Tuesday, 8/28 to Tuesday, 9/3. Not only were my students in rare form after returning from an "unplanned" vacation (did I mention they are still in vacation mode after 3 days back), but I am now dealing with a damaged house in St. Bernard Parish. I am originally from St. Bernard and moved to Hammond after Hurricane Katrina. I lost everything in 2005~~house, car, and dream teaching job. My brother rebuilt my house and now lives there with my nephew. I feel that 2005 is coming back to haunt me again with the numerous phone calls to insurance companies and appointments with adjusters. All in all, everyone in my family is safe and healthy. God is definitely good to us. Material things are repairable and can be fixed.
I am thankful for all of my wonderful readers here in blog-land! I have 188 followers and my blog has been viewed 100,000 times!!! I think a giveaway is in order to show my appreciation to everyone who follows me and takes the time to read my posts.
The following pictures show what I worked on during Hurricane Isaac!!! Let's just say..my hand hurts!!!
You are looking at yards and yards of laminating to cut out!!! I did, in fact, cut everything out before returning to school. My centers are very happy right now!!!
Please check out what my daughter worked on while the lights were out during the hurricane.
