Well, my night got thrown off a bit. I wasn't feeling too well when I got home, but I'd been making excuses for not going to the gym, so I figured I go, and take it easy on myself and at least get a workout in.
Yeah. I sort of forgot about the taking it easy part. I definitely hurled on my drive home. Not so nice. I did feel kinda hardcore though. I've felt like puking while working out a whole bunch of times, but haven't actually done it before.
Oh well! We live and we learn.
How is everyone today?

We'll just not tell H about this little fact, m'kay?

Re: Good Morning!
I'm currently recovering from a fairly substatial blow to my ego brought on my a jerky teacher. So, I'm feeling pretty crappy on the teaching front. I recognize that I wasn't *amazing* last year (in my defence, I wasn't given a school curriculum [there isn't one] and had no idea what content I was required to teach, AND I'm not trained at this grade level, so some support [especially because I asked for help] would have been nice), but I did the best with the resources I'd been given.

I'm not sure how I feel today. Yesterday at work was terrible, but it wasn't 100% the kids fault, I was crabby, it was Monday after a 3 day weekend, both my para and HCA were out. So I got no prep, and no lunch at all so I was with them all day which they aren't used to that either. So they were acting like animals.
Thankfully today I have training and wont be in the classroom. however if it is anything like the last time I was out, it's going to suck on Wednesday. Whatever I am ready for this teaching experience to be over...
Wow that was long a whiny sorry.
We'll just not tell H about this little fact, m'kay?
kaesha, that was super jerktastic of her and you're a great teacher. I don't understand what she's teaching the kids if the stuff you told them is all 'wrong'.

Morning! I've just been butting heads with someone at work who is kind of overreacting at a change in agency leadership. Not a biggie, but I think my boss and I need to talk about how to manage this person's anxieties. The change ? a change in our status.
Other than that, the husband is home today (yay!) and I have a book club meeting to discuss The Lonely Polygamist (a do not recommend, by the way, unless you're really into TLC's Sister Wives). We're meeting at a Thai restaurant, and I am looking forward to that.
Morning.
My parents showed up at 7am to bring Gibson his birthday present. The sun isn't even up that early, I don't know why we were!
Gib has a psychologist appointment this morning, I wonder how this will go with a teething toddler and a crabby 5 year old.
Russ hurt his back at work and now apparently cant talk to me on the phone cause it hurts. (ummm ok??) I can see the direction this day is going already.
Superfantastic!
Good morning! Apparently I woke up late today because when I got to school I had a lot of trouble finding parking. I can see this day just going down hill...
Donna hope Russ gets better from his back.
Have you guys noticed a theme here today? August nesties are not having good days. Friday can't get here soon enough.
I am sick AGAIN! Yes that deserves all caps. Seriously, why is it I get sick for a second time in a month. Corporate world = Germ Fest. I have a call into my doctor to see if they can do anything for me since I now have a horrible cough. My kids are just getting over my last cold and now I am sick again.
I am supposed to go to zumba tonight, but if I am feeling like this, it may not work. I don't want to get sick sick like Raynes did. (which I am sorry that happened to you)
Good Morning!
I am also sick again...ick. I also HATE Tuesdays. They really feel like a bad Monday to me.
I'm sorry we are all having bad days. I really hope they get better for everyone.
I can see the theme of the board today. I'm crabby too. I found out one of the positions that I applied for got filled and I'm bummed. I always hate that disappointing feeling that follows. Other than that I have a test tonight that I didn't really study for, guess I know what I'll be doing on my lunch. Meh, oh well, that lazy night I had instead of studying was well worth it.
I'll join in the fun. I'm crabby too!
It's still mostly work stuff that is bothering me. As a result of our audit, my boss no longer trusts most of the people in my department. I happen to be one of a few people who he still trusts (good, in theory). Unfortunately he has gotten so that he will no longer delegate work out to people and the work that he is delegating to the few people that he does trust is crap work. So he keeps passing along projects that just bore me. I have an MBA and a brain, please don't give me work that a robot can do.
I did update my resume yesterday
Maybe I'll find a job that I enjoy soon because this one is going downhill fast.
Good morning all! I'm here at work catching up on posts. My boss is back after being out sick so I have to work. She's still a little out of it though so she's leaving me to do my work and nest.
ETA: I just went back and read everyone's post. I hope you all have a better rest of the day.
