Let's be honest, the last month or so I've been an MIA blogger. Honestly, I just don't have the time, or the energy. This
teaching job I have for the summer not only has
a strange schedule but has also been completely
exhausting. Plus, on the days
that I do have off there's a list of things I need to do, like . . . starting to build my curriculum for
the REAL teaching position I've landed for this upcoming school year!! Yes, I'm happy to announce that I've achieved
the biggest goal I set for myself in 2012! I'm very
very excited, however, I have a
lot of work ahead of me planning a year's worth of lessons, researching, reading, etc.! (Any tips from veteran teachers out there?)

Anyway, this recent development has forced me to make some choices in how to use my free time (and this is where the bad news comes in) . . . You see, I can either spend my free time (1) writing and blogging about our lives and my home projects, or I can spend my time (2) putting together a kick-butt school year for my future students. While I love love love sharing our lives and my home projects with all of you on this blog, I think I need to focus more of my efforts on making kick-butt lesson plans. Educating our future and all, right?
So, that's why I've decided to take a hiatus from blogging for this summer, or at least until I get a better handle on my schedule and work load. I'm a little bummed by this decision, because I have a whole list of draft posts that I had planned on sharing at some point, but I just haven't been able to find the time and energy to actually finish them up. I'm not leaving blogging for forever, just for a little bit. While I know I could've just stopped blogging for the summer and left it at that, I did want to let you all know about my good news (yay!!) and also give you an update on our
Washington life right now. And, right now, our life is busy. ; ) I hope you all understand!
If you want to stay up-to-date with our regular lives until I resume blogging you can follow me on
Instagram (kristinhroberts),
Pinterest, and
Twitter (I promise to start tweeting more!!). I'd love to keep hearing from everyone and can't wait until I have the time to jump back on the blog and share all of the fun places and things we do!
