Now, I'm usually a positive person but the past few days has not been so pleasant... and while I don't want to blame my job for it... well, I sort of have to. Don't get me wrong... I love teaching and the joy I get from my students, but some days (more recently) it's been a struggle.
I'll go ahead and make this bullet point because it'll be easier for you to read... and let's be honest, it's all about you guys.
- I snoozed too many times that I couldn't shower this morning (GASP!! so unlike me, I know).
- Forgot to pack utensils in my lunch box. Had to use the school cafeteria's unsturdy "plastic" fork.
- Testing today went all wrong... had student's who were supposed to test missing and some who shouldn't test in my room.
- Found a hole in the crotch of my leggings. Oops!
- Tripped over my student's exercise ball chair.
- Read aloud a math test... students at my kidney table made it seem like I had never taught any of the concepts. Wanted to cry... held it back.
- Was late to CLTs, to which I was bombarded by several people about me being late (and actually, I wasn't the latest... and might I add that I was late because I was escorting my teammate's class to their specials because she accidentally dropped them off at MY specials). Bit my tongue literally and figuratively during the meeting.
- Was late picking up my kids from PE... got an earful from the PE man.
- One of my kids told another kid that Hello Kitty was the devil. How DARE you?
- Cancelled my science lesson because my kids can't get along.
- Gave myself a "time out" and sat in the chill out chair for about 10 minutes while the kids just sat in silence, stunned.
- The last bus to come was the one that majority of my students ride.
- Driving home from HH, I hit EVERY SINGLE light.
On a happier note... one week until my birthday. Be ready to party balls with me this weekend!
