Sick

I am having a dilemma or two. I have been subbing for the special ed. Teacher (who decided to resign because she can’t deal with her 8 kids) I love this class, I find it easy, the kids are well behaved, with one or two exceptions, they do there work with a little help, and are basically good kids. The problem I have found is the teachers aide, Steve, when he is in there the problems begin, the kids start having attitudes, they won’t do there work, they talk back, not to me, but to him; and I can see why; he treats them like dogshit! When Steve leaves, they are fine for me. When Steve shuts his mouth, they are fine for me, but I treat them with respect, he doesn’t. He yells at them and treats them horribly. But as a substitute I don’t feel like there is anything I can really do about it. I happen to know that no teacher in the school will work with him because of his attitude, I don’t know why he hasn’t been fired. Anyway, I wish I could do something, but I can’t, not yet anyway. It’s funny, subbing gave me the desire to go back and teach, but I couldn’t decide what to get me certification in. Now that I have subbed for the special ed. classes, I am really leaning toward special ed., they need someone who will care for them and want to teach them, and I think I can do that.

I miss “the Box” I haven’t been on in so long. I haven’t been able to post in so long. All this homework is ruining my social life on the box. I miss all my monkey friends.

Thomas is sick, looks like a 24hr. - 48 hr stomach virus that’s going around. He was running a temp of 102.7 with Tylenol in him. For the first 24 hours he was just sleeping and lethargic, then came the diarrhea and throwing up. My baby isn’t feeling well.

It’s weird I keep dreaming about my Blog. About the comments section, coming in and there being 6, 7, 8, comments a day. I don’t know why. Maybe because I wonder if people read this thing, and if they do, what they think. Even my husband, I know he reds it, I wish he would at least comment.

I think that you would be a wonderful teacher for kids with special needs.

I know that you take care of this special kid far better than I deserve. *smooches*
