What's on your mind

 I live in New England so I expect cold weather in the winter and some snow. Why is it that all we are getting is rain this winter? Mother Nature, please bring some snow my way. Thank you.

 I went to Norton High for the last time as a math teacher on Thursday June 17, 2021. Then on Friday June 18th I celebrated my retirement with my friends and family. Huge thank you to my retirement party committee that planned a fantastic celebration with a Disney theme. Since I am no longer teaching, I will be changing this blog to another called What's on you mind.  I will also be blogging about my vacations and day trips as I plan to do a lot of that during retirement as long as my health will let me. That blog is Traveling with retired math teacher. I will continue to update Mary's weather blog as well.

  Time for me to start counting down the days left to teach. A friend gave me this countdown calendar for my desk that started with 60 days. I will love ripping off one each day. Each day having a different saying. I have waited so long for this and it's crazy that retirement is so close. I am really looking forward to NOT waking up to an alarm clock every day. In addition to the calendar I am also doing a countdown chain in the hallway Each morning I take off one link. The chain has two purposes. One to countdown the days and it adds some color to this plain dull hallway #Retirement2021  Can't come soon enough

I am feeling so much better these days - I got my first shot of the Moderna vaccine. Now I wait 4 weeks to get the second one then 2 weeks after that I am safe to go out in public feeling much more relaxed. When I am fully vaccinated the first thing I am going to do is visit family and friends and give them a HUG. Then I am going to go out to eat. I just haven't felt safe eating indoors but I will in late April. I hope everyone else feels safe getting the vaccine. I am so ready for this world to go back to the way it used to be.  I miss everyone.
