P52: 29 weeks around the sun

Is it January yet? This was a scorcher of a week! You know it's hot in Boston when the heat index is near 100 before 10 am!!

Thankfully, I was at the school most of the week in the a/c. I've been uber productive and it feels good to be ahead of the curve, although I do keep finding more things I need to do...

My aunt was in town and I got to go downtown and see her a few times this week, which was really nice. We had a nice supper out at Legal and it was great to catch up.

It may sound insane, but my favorite way to beat the heat, go to the gym where the a/c is nice and cool. Although, I found that it felt super hot in there too. Either way it was cooler than my apartment and I got some good work done.

By the end of the week I had the chance to skip town to a cooler climate. I was actually, anxiously, awaiting this opportunity all week and I cannot wait to share where I got to jet off to and why! (sorry for being cryptic, trust me the wait is worth it!)

***major update*** I can now say that this week ROCKED because my sister had her second baby!!! ANother little boy! He came a bit early, but is home and doing great!! So that is where I jetted off to, Oregon!! Welcome BBOG2!! stay tuned for tons of updates and pictures!!

Highlight of the week: getting to head west for some extra special family time because BBOG2 made his debut!!!!

Favorite teaching moment: using painter's tape and the tiles on the floor to make 3x3 squares for the kids to solve magic squares in a fun hands on way (totally using that this year in my class!)

Random-osity: apparently there was an amazing lighting show outside our plane on Thursday night. I slept though it. Glad to know I was actually asleep, but darn it, I missed it!

Also! I'm working on growing the blog's facebook page - won't you please join me over there as well? I post a sampling of the random things around me and would love to connect there (here) too!

Also, I feel super lame, I never (yes, never) used Google Reader, but know many of you did. So sorry for your loss! I am on bloglovin' here!
