Done!

Well, at least until November when I find out how done I really am. My assessment center was this morning. I had to drive nearly to Canada to take it. The drive wasn't too bad, though. I always like coming home from a new place better than getting there. On the way home, I know where I'm headed and how close I'm getting. Going, not so much.

How was it, you may ask? It wasn't too bad. The section I was worried about actually went really well, I think. A section I didn't even start studying (historical perspective) was trickier than I thought it would be. I ran out of time on several sections, but was able to get many good (at least I think they were good...) ideas in before the 30 minutes were up. I found through this whole process of getting ready for the assessment center that I really liked some of the things they asked me to do (here's a concept - come up with 6 ways to teach it that, within the 6, teach to the kinesthetic, aural, and visual learners.) That sort of thing, for me at least, was pretty easy to do. The composition was also fairly easy...I wonder how it sounds! lol. I did realize on the way home that I mislabeled something, but oh, well. Aside from the label, everything else was fairly accurate in that response.

I'm so glad to be totally done and not have anything else hanging over my head now. I am finally able to enjoy myself and not feel guilty for doing other things at home. Maybe now I can get through the Steph Plum books for once.

Tonight I'm hopefully going to celebrate a little bit with a friend and our kids. I can also enjoy the nice weather guilt-free. :-)
