Boxes and More Boxes!

So I am officially in my house. Thank you to everyone who helped me move to my new house! I couldn't have done it without all of y'all!

It still feels weird to be here because I keep thinking I'm just "visiting" at someone else's house! I'm sure it will feel real when I make that first payment! I have so many boxes to unpack and I don't even know where to start. I unpack a couple of boxes and then get start doing something else and I will never finish what I started! I've actually unpacked several boxes but it doesn't even look like I have!

I'm trying to decide on somethings that I need to get for the house and how to decorate. I am TERRIBLE at that kind of thing. I can't match things and I don't have an artistic bone in my body so I really feel out of my element here. Any ideas are welcome! I want to get everything set up and decorated quickly so I can have people over without a million boxes everywhere! At least I have an excuse for things being unorganized right now but I need to get on unpacking.

School is getting ready to start again. I always have mixed emotions. Part of me is so ready to get back into a schedule and routine but I know with that comes more "stress" and being super busy. I look forward to the beginning of each year but I get so nervous too. I'm excited to meet my new students but I'm also nervous because I don't like talking in front of adults and I know that goes along with it! I'm very excited about this year. I think it will be different but I think there are going to be some new and neat things that will be in place this year. I'm excited to learn about all of it!

I went to work today to work on our new writing standards and man I forgot how my brain seems to just shut down during the summer. I guess I didn't do as good of a job keeping it working like I intended. Oh well, it will get back in gear soon enough!

Well, since I am wide awak, maybe I should tackle some more boxes!
