Every September teachers working in the north east know it’s time to open up classrooms to the community. Tonight was our Open School Night and it went really well:

I had a good day on plan; however, dinnertime didn’t go so well for everyone at home. I brought a salad with some chicken for dinner, and everyone at home was supposed to eat the flank steak that was marinading overnight. I did all the prep work for that on Sunday, and unfortunately it was a bust. It was a little too rare and a little too spicy for my husband and son so I came home to some gripes and complaints. Well… everyone just has to get over it. I can’t do everything.

I’m a little discouraged, but I’m going to keep at this. Tomorrow is another chance to try again.
