Borrowed this one from All-Knowing Jen over at the Bus of Love. 'Cuz Monday's are for memes this month.

10 years ago:

1. The first half of the year, I was teaching second grade in my hometown, in my old elementary school, with my own second grade teacher as a coworker.
2. I was making lots of trips up to the TC to see Mr. Kluges, with whom I'd moved to the TC in 1997... and then left behind to take previously mentioned job.
3. Applying for tons of teaching jobs because I knew the one I had was going away due to budget cuts.
4. In the fall, I took a job at a wonderful school teaching in a kindergarten-first grade multiage, team-teaching, open classroom environment on an alternate calendar with fabulous coworkers.
   
5. Most importantly, I got engaged to the wonderful Mr. Kluges!

4. Taught in a 1-3 multiage team with 3 great teammates (and 1 awful, b*tchy one)
