The Start of Something...

As I end the 3rd week of my summer break, I have found myself constantly thinking of all the new tricks and strategies that I want to try next year. However, I can't seem to talk myself out of being selfish during the very few hours per day that I have for myself (between wife, boys, and to-do lists). This often equates to naps, complete wasting of time on tech, or getting personal projects completed. SO, I have forced myself to start a blog for that very reason. I read a tweet earlier this Spring, which said "with the right bloggers, blogs can be used as an interactive professional journal discussing relevant EDU Topics" (@tomwhitby). This really spoke to me since I have found a wealth of info from online communities and want to pass on the info.

With this in mind, I'll be compiling various resources to catalog for my own use, but wish for more out of this blog. I wish for it be found and used by other educators/administrators/contributors and to serve as a forum for how we can make this profession simpler, together. Lord knows we could all use this right now!

Well, that's it - happy summering for all the teachers and students out there and we'll see how this goes...
