Where has the time gone?

Wow, it's been a long time since I've blogged! Looks like I'd better get right after it! School started back up on January 5th. We've had some SUPER cold weather since then. I had the opportunity to take five students to our annual Legislative Breakfast last week. Thursday morning it was -39 air temp in one part of the state! Coldest place on the planet - well, in the US. Luckily, the school van started right up and we had a great trip.
This week we've had the inauguration of Barak Obama to follow. We watched all day in my classes on Tuesday. It was really interesting for me to watch and discuss with my students since I had been fortunate to attend the inauguration of George W. Bush in 2005. Watching and discussing the inauguration gave good closure to the discussions we had in class on election day.
I've been continuing to work on CT layouts for InAFog Designs and SandraK Designs. SandraK has a new kit out called "Forever My Valentine" This kit has great colors and textures and, of course, hearts galore! It is available at Sandra's store at Scrappy Thoughts and Scraphead.
Here's a preview of this kit:
