My Grandpa used to say when he was feeling optimistic, and the future was looking bright and up, that he was walking in tall cotton,, I feel like I am walking in my tall cotton right now! It's been 3 weeks about since I left my classroom, and I miss it like crazy; but I've been able to be here for my dad, concentrate on my son, and I have my first consulting job this Saturday at NMSU. I am the first presenter, 45 minutes, and more than I made in a day in the classroom. It's a pre-service for future teachers, and I feel like I can reach more students by helping educate their teachers in how to teach,,, I'm giving a presentation on Project Based Learning, and introducing them to Donorschoose.org so they can have all the neat and fun stuff they need for their classrooms. I am really looking forward to it!
Next weekend, Oct 10 - 13 I'll be up at the Lincoln County Cowboy Symposium in Ruidoso, NM. I fully intend to try out some new writing on folks there. I'm really looking forward to the great music, the chuckwagons, and just relaxing and seeing friends I only see once a year.
