Here I am, just starting a new phase of my life and a brand new blog to record it in. In one more day I will be retired after 31 years in the school system, 7 as a substitute teacher and 24 years as an English teacher/oral interp/assistant debate/theatre director.
I don’t know what this retirement gig is going to be like, but I am hoping to keep up this blog on the whole experience. It is funny I decide to blog on this. I have had a heart attack, a stroke, a year on dialysis, a kidney transplant, diabetes, and another near heart attack, and didn’t journal on any of those.
Evidentally I find this a more important event. Now I just have to see if I can keep this up. Two things happened this weekend. I went to my 50th high school class reunion and to my probably last graduation and million graduation parties. Tomorrow I go up to school and try to get the last of my room cleaned up and disposed of. We’ll see how that, and this blog go.
