Since my son is a teacher, and he is one of the coolest teachers ever, I wanted to make that very clear. I don't happen to have any videos that he uses at school but maybe I'll get one :)
We also have one of the coolest teachers ever at my building. He often makes videos and his first video this school year is outstanding like always. I am posting it here for your pleasure. Most of my readers are friends and family from out of state. I know you'll enjoy it.

First Full Week of School
Having nearly completed my first full week after the students had returned, I'll have to say that it didn't go as I expected because I got sick.
I have very few blog readers and those that do are my friends and family. That fact gives me a sense of freedom to say what's on my mind as far as work goes. I don't mean that I'd reveal confidential information but I may vent now and then.
I actually returned to work on July 25th. I stayed remarkably busy every day which surprised me. I thought I would have a little down time before the students returned on 8-17.
That weekend, I came down with bronchitis, a sinus infection, and an ear infection. I started on antibiotics Saturday which was an interesting (NOT) endeavor. I left the doctor's office about 9 AM and went to my regular pharmacy. After waiting about 30 minutes, they called my name and told me they were out of that particular antibiotic. "Wal-mart will have it" Guess what? Wal-mart did not have it. I decided to try Walgreens next. They were out too!! I was so tired and feeling lousy by then that I just went home. I texted Dan with the situation and went to bed.
My hubby is my hero. When he came, he took the prescription, went out and found a pharmacy the had it.
I took a sick day Monday and went back to work on Tuesday, which was too early and I went home at noon. I stayed home Wednesday and finally felt good enough today to go back to work.
Today was crazy busy. I had about 5 minutes to start eating my lunch and never had a chance to finish.
Well, that's all for now.
