Where oh where has this year gone?

Not that I am counting, but there is less than a month of school left. Woohoo! When I first started in December it felt like the year was dragging on. Now I am wondering where May has gone? 
The end of the year will definitely be a bitter sweet feeling. I am so proud of myself for coming into the middle of the year and accomplishing so much. On the other hand, having my own class is coming to an end, as it is likely I wont have a job next year. 
 (Pray through these tough economic times a job opens and I can squeeze right in.)

On the positive side of things..........
One of the best things about being a teacher is the amazing sale notifications I receive all the time. Scholastic, which is my all time favorite "teacher store" was holding their warehouse sale. A sale I look forward to every time! Look at all of these AMAZING books I purchased anywhere from 50-80% off.  
Looking at this picture reminds me of all the time and money I have spent on my classroom. Wouldn't change a thing about that though!

Hopefully, my next post, whenever that may be, will be good news about a job!
