The Day from Hell!

I have to write this down. The day started normal. By early afternoon, one of my students threw up and the room reeked the rest of the day even though I was burning a pumpkin spice candle. Then I found out the teacher next to me was taken to the hospital by EMS as she was disoriented and had a fever of 104 and didn't know what was going on! After school we had to get the meap tests ready for tomorrow, raced to the ADK dinner in Clawson which was nice but at $3.00 a coke after paying 18.00 for a whitefish dinner, felt the coke charge was unnecessary. It wasn't that nice. Had to race out of there, took an hour to drive home thru the traffic and hit every light from the east side (GPS took me non-highway), changed and off to bell rehearsal. I didn't get home until 9:30 and still have to pack. I am so glad to be leaving as soon as the Science/Social Studies MEAP is done at lunchtime. I am going to kick some Z butt if he is gone another day like today. I sit on the other side of the desk and don't get paid nearly enough to do what we do. Oh well, community service!!! Amanda had a great U2 concert last night. Amazing might be the word. Worried at 2AM that she had not text me. Concert not over till midnight their time!!!! Chelios signed with Chicago. What will happen to his restaurants???? It is what it is and it will be Washington DC by tomorrow at this time!

Delta Dog Days 3

 We have not been able to leave her alone for more than a few minutes.  UGH newborn.  She is a sweetheart and not bothered or barking at other dogs. After I worked at the Thrift shop I took her up to the pool deck and locked the gate.  She is so small  she got through the rungs of the deck.  ðŸ˜³  It is what it is.  She is so sweet but so is needy and so challenging.

Delta Dog Day 4

 Beyond belief, we both got to sleep upstairs in our bed all night!  She could not scale the new gate and settled in her crate in the kitchen around 2:00 AM.  Otto gave me the night but after she settled, he came upstairs and she did not bark or whine all night!!!   I came down after a shower, took her outside on her lead and then fed her.  Back upstairs to do my hair etc.  I heard "something" and came downstairs to find that she had opened the pantry (that has a magnet closure on it for dog/children safety) and had a bag of marshmallows on the floor, not opened thank goodness.   I blocked it with a chair but removed anything that she could get to if she opened it again (within her reach).  NOTE:  new plan for pantry.   Later in the day we were sitting outside with her and she picked some cherry tomatoes and ate them (yes I checked on Google that they are NOT poisonous for dogs).  After dinner with friends, she snatched a corncob an...

School's out, teacher let the fools out!

No more pencils, no more books, no more STUDENT'S dirty looks! What a group I had this year, eiy yie yie! I can honestly say if I never see some of that bunch again, it will be too soon. Fun party last night...too tired to sleep! Nice feeling to sleep in. ADK party this afternoon, piano lesson (may have to re-schedule), picking up new car in Ann Arbor and going to Amanda's 2 baseball games. Nice video chat with Andrew & Matt last night. They get so silly! Brian landed safely in L.A. at 2:09 our time. His plane from Philly was delayed over 3 hours. All day to go 5 hours sucks, but he is safe! Congratulations Matthew Sandoval on your middle school graduation. Have fun with your family. I cleaned out 2 filing cabinets of old 4th grade files and old materials we don't use any more. I think I filled 10 boxes to re-cycle. I didn't get my bulletin boards done for fall (who knows where I will be anyway!) or my books sorted (paperbacks). Administrative whispe...
