This sign appeared in the lobby of Kim's building one morning when we were in Vermont. I am not sure what androgeny has to do with flushing diapers down the toilet. Weird.

Vermont Pics

Our week in Vermont was quick but intense, I spent most of the week at UVM. Not much time for sight-seeing or visiting, but we did get to stop in Waterbury one night to visit the Stagecoach Inn where we got married, and to have some sweet potato fries at the Alchemist of course. Greg was not in a "picture mood" all week, but spent plenty of time at Pure Pop in Burlington. I got some nice shots of Emmett and Beth in Albany, but not sure if L and J want me posting them on the internet. Did I mention I spent the entire week eating Kim's vodka lasagna?

Star Struck at UVM

We made to Vermont on Saturday night. So far I am spending all my time on my week long grad class. I hope to take some pics with my new Canon camera later on this week. An amazing thing happened on my first day of class today. I got to hear a lecture by one of the author's of Women's Ways of Knowing-Jill Tarule- which is a seminal work in feminist theory. This research has played a huge role in forming my identity as an educator. I was basically star-struck. Today's lecture make's this whole week worth it for me (so far anyway).

Ins and Outs

Monday was my last day of school for the year. The last month was more of a whirl wind than school in Vermont was, mostly because of SOL testing. The last day of school was especially good for me, as I was officially offered the transition specialist job starting next year. While being back in the classroom this year was a good refresher for me, I miss being a specialist. Getting this promotion makes the past year worth it to me. Taking the case manager job felt like a step back after being a specialist for three years, but now I realize it was the path that led me to this new job. Ok, enough cheese.

We are leaving for Vermont on Friday, going for a week. B is going along with us for the ride, we are going to drop her off in Albany to see her new nephew. We are going to visit friends and family, but our main reason for going is that I will be taking a week long graduate class at the Univ of Vermont. They are letting me finish my Certificate of Advanced Study that I started while in Vermont. So, I have to go back this summer and next to take grad classes.

I plan to get a new camera before we leave, as you know my current camera sucks and I hate it. Any suggestions on a good camera would be appreciated.

Happy Birthday Me!
