Since Friday, I have:
-watched 3 eps of Once Upon a Time (S3) and A Ballerina's Tale on Netflix
-washed 2 loads of laundry (who knows when they will be put away)
-slept A LOT
-went to Target (I was bored at home yesterday)
-started a rewatch of The Autobiography of Jane Eyre when I could not fall asleep last night ( Read more... )

By extreme, I mean extremely busy or extremely lazy. Slept in, then worked most of the day. Body is still teasing me with cold symptoms that come and go. I don't want to finish report card comments. I don't want to work this week ( Read more... )

It's amazing how I can not be hungry all day, and when I finally eat dinner I'm famished. Well, I was famished, and 3 hours later I'm content.

The smart thing to do was to go to bed early, but the need for a period movie fix won over. So, I watched half of Jane Eyre disc 2. I would have finished it but email beckoned me. Whenever I watch ( Read more... )

I'm not usually prone to paranoia, but getting cold/flu symptoms when this swine flu business is all over the headlines has me just a tiny bit freaked out ( Read more... )

I managed to grade one set of reading tests, which my students did surprisingly well on. This could be because it was a fiction story and not the non-fiction we've had for a while. What scares me a little is that they read the story over 3 days with the sub. I left directions to read and ask a lot of comprehension questions, and it took forever ( Read more... )

I hate being sick. I hate being sick. I hate being sick!

Maybe Pride and Prejudice had it right after all - colds are major illnesses and those who catch them should remain in bed, pampered by their rich potential husbands. I could deal with that.

must post to keep up daily thing. think i'm fighting a stomach bug. my left arm is half useless. typing one handed atm. more details later. had to cut movie night short because felt ill. i hope it's eating too much dinner and not what's going around work.

So far today, no cold medicine, and I haven't been coughing. Voice is still croaky but it doesn't feel like I'm straining to speak ( Read more... )

Yesterday morning consisted of sleeping in, going to get sustinence at Starbucks (yum tuna wrap, I was craving it), getting gas and fighting boredom on the internet. Towards the afternoon people started calling me, which wasn't good for my voice but it seemed to be getting better. Since I hadn't seen Luis in a while, we decided to meet for coffee ( Read more... )

I called in for a sub. Yes, an actual sick day, my second ever. I almost called today, after waking up with crusty eyes, but I didn't have anything ready for a sub and didn't know whether I should call in or not. After sticking it out all day, having to make the kids work independently whenever my voice would give out, I knew I needed a day off ( Read more... )
