In case you were wondering, no, I have not dropped off the face of the earth.  Summer happened.  And while I was well-intentioned to finish up last year’s blogging strong, summer vacation got the best of me and instead I haven’t typed a thing in weeks. Months maybe.

But for those of you who are loyal blog readers, I thought I’d at least let you know I’m alive and kickin’, doing what teachers do in the summer.  Hey–now there’s an idea for a new blog post….:)
