About time for me to pass the hell out, so real quick today.
Accomplishments for Thursday 11/22 into Friday 11/23:
- Brainstormed ideas (by myself & not part of my job) to deal with the difficult student for the morning. Came up with a few angles to try according to what day staff insists works with her.
- Worked my 10 hour shift, very tired from only five hours of sleep and filled with turkey.
- Balanced my checkbook and budgeted out my next paycheck (and yay I get to throw more in the savings account from the overtime I've worked the last two weeks.)
- Plowed through edits in chapter 4, which is a pretty huge accomplishment because I had to rewrite most of the chapter and adjust pacing/scene placement.
- Figured out (mostly) what to do with chapter 5, at least enough to be able to edit and send it off to Katy & my professor.
- Attempted 2 of my ideas to reduce amount of behaviors in AM from my difficult student, sadly, with little positive result. I will take she didn't aggress at all. My face and glasses are quite pleased with that. Unfortunately, the scratches are looking *really* angry today. Hope those won't take too long to heal. It's kind of awkward explaining it to people who aren't familiar with my line of work... although part of me takes great joy in watching people squirm and gasp "I could never do that!" (Yes, yes you could if you had to.)
