The Big Move In! I Survived..Barely!

Slide1

I’m sure you all have been in my shoes ! My school has been going through modernization. al of my teaching supplies have been in storage. School started this Wednesday…I got the keys Sunday and 25+ years of stuff all in boxes piled all over the room!

Slide3

My daughter got stuck with me for hours. Thank goodness for DVD players. It’s amazing how many Barbie movies a 5 year old can watch!

Slide2

I swear it got worse as the days went on! Where do I put all this stuff in my new (smaller.. less storage) beautiful room?

Slide4

I proceeded to open over 200 boxes in two days!

Slide5

My poor Chicka Boom Boom tree has seen better days! I did get all my stuff put away but not a lot of decorating just yet! I’ll put more pictures of first day this afternoon! Oh did I mention Back to School Night was Wednesday evening! I’m off to school to begin to organize all the stuff I shoved into those pretty cupboards!

I hope all your school years are off to a great start! Kim

  3. We had a renovation a couple of years ago in my school. The new design made our space even more limited. Your challenge is one that I can relate to- good luck with your new school year. I am sure your classroom will be beautiful.

  4. Oh, boy- we went through this about five or six years ago. WHAT a hassle! I couldn't believe how many extra hours were required of us, with NO extra pay! Boooooo!
    I hope that in the long run, your school will be a better place for you to teach in and be! I'm sure that ours is, but for the life of me, I just can't even remember what they actually DID the place now, other than put in a whole lot of handicapped access ramps. Well, I suppose someday we will have a child in a wheel chair that will need them...
    Good luck and keep on chugging along! "I think I can, I think I can, I think I can, I think I can,...!"

    1. OMG You are so right the bathrooms are huge...Why ??? We could throw a party in there...but of course you can't use any of it for storage! Thanks Heidi I think my new motto needs to be "I think I can" and maybe a few more cups of coffee too ! :) Kim
