I hope you all enjoyed your Thanksgiving break with family and friends. Can you believe it~ tomorrow is already December and Cyber Monday Sales will be off and running. Did you do some shopping this Black Friday and cash in on some great deals? This is my first year that I actually decided to stay home and try to relax after spending a very hectic week with finalizing report cards, parent teacher conferences and preparing a Thanksgiving feast for nine people. This week, I also lost my precious cat named Grover to an illness. He was only three years old. That little ball of fur brought me so much joy and it is just so hard letting him go. I brought him home from a shelter when he was just 3 months old and I loved spending every precious moment with him. My husband called me while I was in the midst of parent conferences to inform me of the terrible news. Apparently, he had a rare feline illness which caused fluids to build up and after being on a feeding tube at the vet hospital for three days, we had to make that horrible decision that no pet owner wants to make. I am so thankful for the time I spent having Grover in my life and spending time with family has helped ease my heartache. I may not have been in the mood for shopping this weekend, but I am hoping that the month of December will brighten my spirit. I look forward to tomorrow and featuring my teacher stores in the biggest holiday sales. I have a few holiday fun activities that I'm excited to share with my teacher friends. They were a big hit with my last year's class and I look forward to using them with my class this year.
