Another Wednesday has passed. The kids were good today. My small class was even smaller than usual, and they are still enjoying the Poetry unit.
But then we had a staff meeting. zzzzzzzzzzz............... Looking around the room, I wasn't the only educator with eyes glazed over. I would rather be in front of the kids, teaching. Just last week I was in Winnipeg, going through more professional development. I keep wondering about each presenter: Do they enjoy this more than being in the classroom?
It was nice to experience the weather, but I'm sorry, the city just seems...blah. I am from Newfoundland. I need the sea, hills, colours. The only colour I see in Winnipeg involves stop signs!
Now I am back in Churchill, my current stomping grounds for the next two months. I was accepted into Memorial University's Masters program for the upcoming fall, so once again I will be back in Newfoundland with my wife (GREAT!) and be a student!
Bedtime.

Alas dear friend, I too miss the sea, hills and the smell of the ocean. Not sure what will happen in a few years but I plan to put the pressure upon the lady to pull the plug and return home. Congrat's on the masters! Mike
