So here I am, back in Union, living with my mom. Yup, it's just like I'm a little kid again. Oh well, it isn't TOO bad to be waited on. ;) Kidding! I really am trying to do as much as I can by myself. It's amazing how much you drop when you can't bend over or get out of the bed! That's the most annoying thing. I think mom is tired of me ( Read more... )

Well, I made it through the week. Jesus Christ I'm glad there's only one more week until we have our wonderful Christmas break!! I don't know if I could handle much more!!! And the best part: Friday the kids are dismissed at 11:30. Whew! Anyways, I plan to do pretty much NOTHING next week. I'm going to think of crafts and bullshit for them ( Read more... )

Is it too early to take something and pass out for the rest of the day? I'm assuming it is.

Right now I want two things for my birthday:

1. Stop thinking about this stupid ass situation.
2. Stop thinking about my classroom.

IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK???

Last night while Rebeclynne was over "planning" I asked her and Susie to make bets on how many days Latimer would show up. She has ten (well now nine) days left until she takes her extended break for her surgery. I was ready to guarantee that she would be out. Susie bets on her missing two days, Rebeclynne bets on her missing three days. Well, ( Read more... )

My surgery is over and I'm alive to tell all about it. We got there about 30 minutes early (just as I knew we would) and they didn't call me back until like 11:45 or 12:00. That really sucked. Anyway, they stuck the little monitor thingys to me and then they got ready to "numb" my skin and put in the IV. That is by far the dumbest thing I've ( Read more... )

Issues with Latimer came to a head today. Well, I guess she will fully realize it tomorrow, but it hit me today. Because she is a fat lazy tard she didn't go on the field trip today. She stayed behind at school to "work." I told Mr. Adams I did NOT want her in my room and he agreed. I knew it wouldn't work, and of course, I was right. We got ( Read more... )

Today was, well, Monday. Mrs. Latimer was absent (surprise surprise) and I had Mrs.Martin as a sub. She'll be my long term sub when Mrs. Latimer takes her leave for her surgery. Should be interesting. We made some changes today that I'm sure Latimer won't care for. Too bad...it's my classroom. I get paid almost 3 times what she gets so it's ( Read more... )

I have officially completed my last first day as a first year teacher. I'm pretty excited to be done with that for sure. I was impressed with the first day and it was a lot worse than what I initially expected. I started off the day by forgetting snack AND my keys to the mobile. Thank goodness Rebecca's key works in my mobile and I didn't HAVE ( Read more... )

I know I'm overdue for an update and will get to that later....

For now: Open House is today at 3:30. Before that we have a luncheon with the District Office. Yes, I'm scared to death and I'm dreading it. I still have to finish my room! Thank God Nana is coming this morning.

So I've been a little slack at real updates lately. SORRY! My life is rather boring and I haven't particularly needed to vent so I've been good. Anyways, to catch you up to date, I did a lot (I guess) in the classroom Friday and it's looking okay. I'm not ready for Tuesday (much less Monday) but I guess it's ready for parents to see IF they ( Read more... )
