I'm really bad at this...

Wow, 2011 is 3/4 of the way over and a lot has happened! You wouldn't know if from this blog, because apparently I'm not updating it :/ 2011 came in with full force. We had the snowstorm of the century! Everything basically shut down for a week. My basketball team went undefeated, followed by my lacrosse team who beat the Potomac School for the first time in school history. However, I was feeling the 2-year itch, so I traveled down to SC in search of a new job. I decided (begrudgingly) to stay in DC until the end of my masters' program. I resigned at Edlin (but went on a great field trip with my 4th grade class to Baltimore...a pirate cruise)! Oh, I almost forgot...I went to AFRICA! The French students raised money to help their pen pals build a new school in Senegal and I tagged along. Best. Trip. Ever. Grace graduated from Barrie and is now a freshman at UVA (I know, I can't believe it either). Ashley moved out and I got a new roommate named Marie, but our usual group went through the summer process of celebrating birthdays (Ashley's, Andrew's, Jimmy's, mine...) I worked another summer at the Potomac School coaching lacrosse and popped down to Myrtle Beach for a week in August to see the family. Then it was back to work! I'm now working with an autistic boy (who's in 7th grade) and coaching varsity field hockey at Falls Church HS. Oh, and of course I added another semester of grad school just to keep things interesting! Never a dull moment.
