She Works Hard for the Money

As most of you know I am a working woman now.  I got my first school counseling job and have hit the ground running.  I have been crazy busy and have had little time to even stop and eat lunch, much less relax.  The kiddos start school tomorrow and I am looking forward to meeting all of them.  We have 1300 kids at our school and only two counselors.  It is going to be an interesting year for sure.  So if I am not posting as often that is why.  I did want to show off my office space though.  I am still in the process of decorating, so any fun ideas that would be good for a middle school would be appreciated.  I have one big blank wall and I am trying to come up with something fun to put on it.  I want my office to be an inviting, warm, and safe space for the students.  I think I am getting there slowly.  




Notice the duct tape holding the arm of my chair on, haha

  4. you should scour pinterest for some ideas for your blank wall... I bet you will have a great first year! I am excited for you, and I hope you share some stories on here!

    and p.s. I think we have all hit/been hit by our spouse at night. We should bring this subject to light: spousal abuse at night! I could see it on 20/20 now! haha

  5. You have done a great job decorating thus far - I love the bright fun colors. Your office is really nice too! I can't believe there are only two of you for a 1,300 persons school, wow! Best of luck!

  6. It looks great! I'm visiting from 20sb. Very inviting. I recommend some sort of colorful piece of art for the wall. maybe your local starving artist sale or something. Or even better, art class sale!
