Tuesday...the new Monday?!?!

Happy Labor Day, y'all! Clearly, I missed that by a little...oops!
Today, Tuesday, is definitely feeling like a Monday. Sometimes I hate strongly dislike 4 day weeks! I have worked enough today to justify have the rest of the week off (in my opinion)!
This post will be short and simple. It's raining outside a.k.a. my jammies and bed are SCREAMING my name.
I must mention that I absolutely love my kids. Tomorrow we're starting our first full unit of the year on early cultures (the Stone Ages). I'm pretty excited. We're going to take some notes and talk about inferences while watching clips from the 1981 movie Caveman. It's ridiculously hilarious and has some pretty famous faces (Shelley Long, Ringo Starr, Dennis Quaid). If I could get away with showing the whole movie, I would, however, my kids would definitely pick up on some of the inferences made in the movie! Gotta keep my day job! :)
Tomorrow is also huge because I have my first official webinar with the 2012 TGC (Teachers for Global Classrooms) group. Long story short, after applying and being selected, I have to complete an online course about global education, travel to D.C. for pre/post symposiums, and travel to a foreign country for 3 weeks next summer. I'm pretty stinking excited. If all of my requests are honored, I'll travel to either Morocco, Ghana, or Brazil. Lets be real...I have no money so wherever they want to send me is beyond fine by me!
Super excited for all of the opportunities!
