Party Pooper

I just got home from a birthday party, they were grilling some South African sausage....I didn't try any....It's a month of parties. LOTS of birthdays, three baby showers (one that I'm hosting this Thursday at work), and a wedding shower....crazy! I spent the morning hopping from one gift registry to another....the afternoon wrapping, and the evening refusing strange meats! Other than 'partying.' I need to spend the month packing up my classroom. I'm trying to think less and work more because I think it's something I'll be able to reflect on with more understanding next year because I am not leaving an unhappy situation, there isn't a sense of 'relief' just 'different.'
