School's out for summer! My short tribute to Alice Cooper. Are you singing along?
Can you tell I'm excited?
Yes, I have to go in tomorrow for a few hours, but with no students! We went later in the year than we ever have this year. I'm used to getting out of school before Memorial Day. But here we are. I already have workshops scheduled for the summer. I have one next week and four days of workshops the following week, but it's okay because they're all about technology, which I love, and I will get free software from Adobe!
My "babies" are now 7th graders about to celebrate their 12th birthdays. They are doing completely different things for their birthdays, so a lot of planning is going into all that which is happening next week. Then they go to their dad's. Later in the summer, they go to Nebraska to see their Grandma. My step-daughters are going to England with their grandparents later in the summer. My husband and I are going to the Grand Canyon and Monument Valley later this month.
One thing I am really looking forward to, besides the birthday parties, is using my new laptop. My husband bought me an HP/Compaq notebook, and it's got lots of bells and whistles, and I'm still getting used to it. I've only had it one day.

I'm also looking forward to getting to sleep regularly, scrapbook, read, and get my house clean. I'd also like to make some home movies into DVD movies using Pinnacle Studio. I just don't have enough time! I'm really going to set some goals for my hobbies (making videos, scrapbooking, and reading) and stick to my goals. I need to start going to the gym again.
Anyway, happy summer to all of you! I'm so excited, and I just can't hide it... Is that song stuck in your head now?
Yay for summer!!! Sounds like you guys will be keeping busy.
