MIA
I have not written in a while as I been just a touch busy and stressed out:
- My car died last Wednesday night so I had to have i towed to my aunt's house, where it still is. This would not have been quite as bad, but I'm moving - so I NEEDED that car! So now I'm renting for the week, while in the process of buying a new one. . .well a new-er one.
- I'm moving so right now all of my furniture and books are in my apartment, but all of my clothing is still at my parents' house. And both places are gigantic, chaotic messes.
- We're coming down to the wire for "Annie" and my SECOND Molly quit. No sooner had we picked a third then my Lilly's mother came a pulled her out of rehearsal and possibly the show altogether. (!!!) We STILL have no lights, sound equipment, costumes, or budget for any of those things. And my set director has gotten herself horrendously behind and our sets are looking iffy as well.
- One of my THIRD GRADE students was suspended yesterday for pulling a knife on a kid from another class yesterday at recess.
- My brother moved to Australia on Sunday so we had a houseful of company all weekend and I didn't get a single spare moment to address any of the things that I needed to get to.
I do have to say Happy Birthday to John and to Kari Marie and thank you to Katherine for the postcard - I don't think too many people would take time out of their vacations to send mail to a stranger's class. . .also another thank you to Dan for coming on my class trip with me. The short version: we went to Ruby Foo's in Times Square and then to Drumstruck, which was all free for the kids thanks to my fairy godmother. We had an amazing day, but I'll have to write about it some other time. . .off to work!
