Sometimes my roommate does things that really piss me off! We live in GA where the summers last long and are hot and humid. Yes I realize our air is annoying and runs a lot when it doesn't need to but to me it makes more sense to just adjust it warmer than to turn it off completely. I didn't know she had turned it off so I'm trying to make it ( Read more... )

So I'm wasting time until the official 3:00 minute so I can get out of here for the weekend. Another teacher and I (and anyone else who decides to join us) have plans to meet for mexican food and margaritas...and then I just want to sleep. We desperately need this rain but it HAS to start on Friday with the plan to last all weekend. I'm going ( Read more... )

I hate PTA!!! I don't suppose I would hate it so much if it weren't for the traffic problem in ATL I wrote of yesterday. I could easily get home by 3:30 but the chances of me making it back by 6:30 (without leaving at 4:00) are slim to none! So instead I hang around the school - at least the air is not off this time! I should get a lot of stuff ( Read more... )

Man I'm glad this day is over! You know you're probably not in for a good week when practically your first news of the day isn't good...The assistant director of SLPs for my county informed me that I would be 20% (one full day) at another school...but first she asked me if I would mind doing it because it would really help them out. But it's not ( Read more... )

There is always so much excitement at my school. I find it humorous the decisions the school board makes about schools that are already failing. Hmmm, their enrollment is low, class sizes are small (actually close to perfect), so let's take out teachers and increase class sizes to 28-30! That will help them bring up those darn test scores!!! So ( Read more... )

It sure is nice to have this extra day off! But now I don't want to have to go back tomorrow! It flew by too quickly ( Read more... )

TGIF...I need the day to end! Thank goodness there are 3 days off. I didn't get home til 8 last night - it should be illegal to be away from your job for less than 12 hours. And I have a few breaks today in my schedule...I'm not used to that, especially when I really don't feel like doing all the crap I could get done ( Read more... )

I've actually been able to breathe a little better today. I smeared vicks all over my nose and head last night and it actually seemed to help open up my nasal and sinus passages! As long as I don't get a sinus infection this time I think I can handle it. Not too bad a of a day I guess but it seemed kind of long...and it's not over yet. We have ( Read more... )

I hate how you can be perfectly fine one hour and then begin to feel like utter crap the next...I was only suffering from lack of sleep yesterday and then last night I was freezing and this morning I woke up stuffed up and it has proceeded to get worse today - and I was freezing all day! And oh the sinus headache ( Read more... )

Exhaustion is the feeling of the day! Pure exhaustion! This was a whirlwind weekend - we left so late on Friday nite that we didn't get to Orlando til 3am after being up for about 23 hours already! We got up early Sat. morning to go to Animal Kingdom - the only disney theme park we hadn't been to...it was very neat and it's so much more fun when ( Read more... )
