Today will be my third day of new teacher in-service. So far both of the days I have learned some things. I am realizing that there are so many resources that are available to teachers - it is just going to be hard to swim through all of them and decided when and where to use all of them. I am fortunate enough to have a SMART board in my classroom. I am really excited to have this, as the possibilities are really endless with it. Students really enjoy learning with it, so hopefully I can create some exciting and engaging ways to incorporate it into our day.

Tonight Adam and I will be seeing a comedian, Jeff Dunham. After that we are fortunate enough to be able to see our friends Erin and Dan. We will spend the rest of the night with them and then head on out in the morning to another concert - Melissa Etheridge.

I'm definitely starting to feel a little overwhelmed with school starting up real soon and having all of these inservices to be attending. They are a great way to be able to meet some of the other teachers.

We are also pretty disappointed, Nitwits, the comedy club that we went to every week in Sioux Falls, is now closed. We looked forward to our one night of comedy a week, and now we don't have that! Hopefully it can reopen or a similar venue will come along sometime soon.

Now, off for another long day...
