This was my first proper week back at work, after being away for two and a half years. Much has stayed the same, but a few things have changed!
1- I am no longer one of the "young ones". Marriage moved me to the edge of that category, but having a baby solidified it. Younger teachers are now coming to me for advice, rather than the other way around. This is both exciting and terrifying!
2- Before I went on leave, a few teachers would bring their own laptops to work. When I arrived this week, almost everyone had one out in the workroom.
3- I can no longer wear heels of any height all day, every day. I now have "sensible shoes" that probably add another 10 years to my age, but I don't care because they're comfortable.
4- I also can no longer survive on coffee and air if I forget my lunch at home. I actually drove home one day this week to pick up my forgotten lunch.
5- I look forward to the weekends for different reasons now. Gone are the the Friday and Saturday nights at the club. They've been replaced by sidewalk chalk on the driveway and a walk to the park.
Have a great weekend. I'll be posting tomorrow and putting up the Menu Plan on Sunday!
