First day with kids back in class for the second semester. Should be a challenging schedule from the stand point that my two computer classes are full, mostly freshmen, mostly boys, but I'm optimistic that 3rd and 4th block will go well. But 9th grade freshmen boys in keyboarding is not a recipe for the greatest buy-in that is for sure.
So the schedule for this, my final semester ever teaching is Accounting I, Sewing, Microsoft Office, Keyboarding, Customer Service, Prep Period. Last period this semester is sort of another prep period but I'll be working on maintaining the schools website, teaching applications to teachers, putting together how-to lists and instructions for various people in school and creating a binder of all my local knowledge of what I do in addition to my actual teaching job.
And I have to continue cleaning out crud from file cabinets and cupboards that is my stuff to take home, stuff that I should have gotten rid of a long time ago, and generally leaving things really nice for who will be getting my position when I'm done. That's just me.
I'm going to try to remember to take a picture of my current computer lab so that I can post a picture of my lab in 1997 and one in 2015. It is fun to compare and amazing at the same time how far things have come.
So, only 135 days to go.

Good luck with all the sorting - a necessary job, but not fun. I'm sure your successor will appreciate your effort!
