Paperwork is a drag!
Retiring is great, but completing all of the paperwork to do it is really a pain! I spent at least two hours today filling out forms, getting signatures, making copies of birth certificates, etc., etc. And all of this was to enable me to FINALLY be free of so much paperwork!!
Whew! Who knew when I entered the education profession that it would be so full of paperwork, when all I wanted to do was teach students. My, my can we cut down any more trees?!
I'll be gone for the next few days to TEPSA Conference in Austin. That's the annual conference for elementary principals. I decided to go this year to have one final trip with my colleagues. And since I plan to stay up to date on education, it will give me an opportunity to hear some of the latest (but maybe not the greatest) news in elementary education. Of course, along with attending sessions at the conference, there will be some shopping and opportunities to indulge in visiting some of our favorite restaraunts. ( P.F. Chang's and The Cheesecake Factory!!) I'll try to be good. Don't want those pounds I've lost to come creeping back.
I'll give a report on my journey when I return. Now I have to go pack!

Boy do I understand about the paper. I must have thrown out three or four large trash bags full of paper that last day of school. And now at home I'm still going through endless mounds of paper.
Have a good time on your final principal trip. Let us know all about it when you return. Be safe.
