Middle School...here I come!

Sunday is quite possibly my favorite day of the week (when I'm not sick). I love that I get to sleep in, attend church, take naps and just be lazy! Some of my favorite Sunday activities include trying new crock pot recipes, watching movies or ballgames, baking, taking Stanley on walks, and visiting with family and friends. I often wish we could have more Sundays each week.

A lot of time has passed since I last wrote. I am currently fighting a minor sinus infection, which I typically have 3-4 times per year. Thankfully, this is a slow time of the school year and I'm not bogged down with a lot of work right now. Speaking of work, I have some big news to announce: my district has reassigned me to teach a "multicategorical" special education class at Riverside Middle School for the 2011-2012 school year. I was surprised when I heard the news, but now I'm excited for the new challenge and change. Middle school...here I come!

In other Conklin family news...Kevin just enjoyed his spring break by still attending his internship at WYFF News 4 and writing a paper for his senior seminar class. He was accepted to graduate school at the University of South Carolina, but isn't sure he is going to attend. He is hoping to be able to find a job after graduation in May. I bought a plane ticket to Orlando, Florida to join my family in watching my cousin Brianna compete in the ICU World Cheerleading Championships in April. Go team USA! I'm really looking forward to this trip to get away, spend time with family, and visit Florida. In the mean time, I am still logging miles while preparing for my half marathon on April 2nd. I've run 177 miles so far this year with my longest run being 11 miles in 1 hour and 49 minutes. The race and my spring break are just 3 weeks away.
