Unmotivated
I crawled out of bed this morning at 9:30 when my friend dropped off her daughter, and breakfast, so I could baby-sit a few hours. Yay for breakfast burritos and lattes. Now I'm trying to get motivated enough to actually do something. I need to go to Costco, the grocery store, and maybe Target. I also have to do some grading so I can calculate report card grades. Of course there's laundry and cleaning. I just don't want to do anything. Either the change in season or the cold Susan had is flirting with my health. Little symptoms creep up then flee the next day. However, one week left until fall break. I'll try not to be sad that breaks are only a week now.
So I heard a rumor at work yesterday which I was not brave enough to ask my boss about. It was a good rumor about me personally - apparently our boss told another teacher I was doing something well. I was surprised, since the boss hasn't even hinted it to me. If what the other teacher said is true...it's not that I don't believe him but I wish the boss would have told me himself. After all the demands placed on us and the stress we feel, those little affirmations make me not want to quit.
Maybe I will ask the boss on Monday. Maybe.
Last night a bunch of Kairos folk went to Ballet Under the Stars (and airplanes, since it was so close to the airport). An outdoor stage was set up on the lawn next to Tempe Center for the Arts, with Tempe Town Lake behind it. We chatted, ate dessert, and had a general good time in the warm night. Make that cool, since it's finally nice enough to be outside in the evenings. I drove Allyson back to Luca's afterward, during which we sang along to Phantom of the Opera. Good times.
