Today's my PD day

Correne has inspired me to have a PD day to focus on school prep/planning. I think that's a great idea. Of course, I just read that some people will be going to a local rec centre and I'm tempted to go... We'll see.

I'm going to start my day off with some fun stuff--I know, I know, seems kind of hypocritical to insist on the Work First Policy with the kids, and here I am playing before I work, but it's 6:23 am, I can't go roaming around the house making noise and turning on lights while I collect what I need. Besides, although I naturally woke up early (I've been awake since 5:45), my brain's still not really on yet.

Then I'll move onto the things I need to get done: take care of the school room and the school shelves, plus the planning and prep. I can't think more detailed than that at the moment. lol. See? If I were to actually start working, I'd be sitting here staring at the screen or standing in front of something to clean up and wondering what the heck to do. (I think a nap needs to be scheduled in for today!)

I'm ready to begin schooling on Monday. This break was really, really good and I'm ready to get going again. Just when I'm more awake. ;)

Whoops, I accidentally deleted my first comment! I was trying to edit it.

Anyway, I wanted to let you know that I've posted a link to your blog at my website. You can find it at Montessori for Everyone. Just click "Montessori Links" on the left. Thanks for sharing your experiences with everyone!

Thanks! I just noticed that I don't seem to have any of the blog links I used to have. Probably happened when I moved the blog to Blogger Beta. argh.

Hmm, your blog URL should have stayed the same when you moved. I know mine did. By the way, could you email me at montessoriforeveryone@gmail.com? I don't know your email address and I have a question for you. Thanks!

My URL stayed the same, it's my links on the side that disappeared.

And for those who don't live in an area where PD Day is used, it's Professional Development Day, days where the kids have off school but the teachers work on various stuff.
