So I went to the doctor, and only after having to explain that I wasn't in high school and was actually a middle-school teacher, I received the diagnosis. It appears that I have a viral infection with laryngitis.
The doctor told me that under no circumstances was I to return to school prior to Wednesday, so I get tomorrow off also. As bad as this will be once I return to school, I'm actually taking this as an opportunity to get caught up on all the little things I've been needing to do - vacuum the house, go grocery shopping, write my paper for grad class, etc.
There was major rain all night and day in Houston today. Flooding was rampant. I drove through three lakes on the way home from the doctor today. Several school were cancelled - of course mine was not one of them.
In true Houston fashion, the forecast for tomorrow is all sun and 96 degrees.
Born, raised, and educated in Georgia my entire life, I have relocated to Houston, Texas for my new adventure... Teach For America. This blog will hopefully help chronicle my journey as I teach sixth grade for two years in an attempt to help end educational inequity in America.
