TGIF and I am overwhelmed as usual!

So, the day started with not much sleep after yesterday's student incidents.  Anyway,  the day progressed to my prep when we met with a parent of one of the problem students (hopefully issue resolved) and I saw my new math coach in the hallway.  Forgot she was coming today for my worst hour of the day.....3rd.   I have 34 students, many problematic, and it is a nightmare.  Hopefully after observation she had comments that will help.  Fast forward to the "dance" after school.  I ran out to get a soda between school and the dance.  There was a problem with the DJ and we had crazy 7/8th graders to deal with but nothing compared to getting ready to leave and I could not find my keys.  Ran out to my car only to see them on the front seat with a door that was locked.  Thank goodness my principal has "connections" and within 5 minutes we had a "guy" that is connected to the HPD retrieving my keys.  What was amazing was how fast he was in m...

Saturday, Saturday

What a busy Saturday.  After working around the house, changing the bed, doing laundry, grading papers, paying bills, decorating for Halloween, I did errands, went to the grocery store, washed the car, took Lucy for a walk, washed all the downstairs windows,and called my brother (who is back in the hospital).....I am ready for bed.   Early call for bells tomorrow, 2 services and back to work with school tasks, packing up the back yard chotchkee stuff, and all the other Sunday tasks.  It is what it is and it is busy!!!!!

1/3 thru October

Where does the time go??? This week has been short.  We had a religious holiday on Monday in our district so we had the day off.  Nice 3 day weekend.  Wednesday I was out for Math PD. Full Red Moon this week, dealing with a major brother issue, worried about EVERYTHING, lockdown yesterday (even though I was not there, it was a big issue), winter, math, minor procedure at podiatrist    today (unexpected) and now sore foot, glad tomorrow is Friday.  FaceTime with my new granddaughter, glad that my kids will all be here for Thanksgiving, math, days are shorter, kids missed me, math, math, math.  I am so proud that I know how to solve Y=mx+b in a graph, an equation and a table.  Did I mention that my foot hurts (hate foot issues that are on-going, since I love to walk and I am on my feet all day), and I love math??? It is what it is......I am ready for a trip somewhere.  Andrew told me today that Copley Square is missing me...well I am missing Co...
