It never fails...vent

It never fails that I end up sick during the week of parent-teacher conferences. I started with a sore throat on Saturday and it's gotten worse since then. As of a few hours ago, I have no voice and I can't call out of work tomorrow. I've had p-t conferences for the last two nights, but tomorrow is our late night when we're required to be there from 6-8, so I have 15 conferences between 4 and 7:30 that I would have to reschedule. Not only would it be a total PITA to have to reschedule all those conferences for next week (since I already have my conference times taken for Thursday and Friday), but with no voice, I wouldn't be able to make the phone calls anyway! So frustrating. I would love to just sleep in tomorrow and rest so that I can get better, but it's just not an option.

  • Boooo!  That usually happens to me too.  I hope you feel better soon.  Conferences are SO stressful without being sick on top of them!

  • Oh no, Bethany! I really hope that you wake up tomorrow feeling a lot better.  This season is the worst, I have been battling similar symptoms since the day after Thanksgiving.
  • Oh no! I had strep this time last year. Hope you recover quickly and that some of your conferences are no shows so you can rest!!!

    Part of me is hoping for no-shows too so that I can have some down time in between conferences, but if they no-show, I have to call to reschedule for next week, so that sucks too. At my school, we have to meet with every parent in order for them to get their kids' report cards. I guess I'm really just hoping they have pity on me and just sign the report cards and leave.

  • Though it would suck to reschedule some, at least you would have the weekend to rest if they no-show. Hope today goes smoothly :) My conferences are tomorrow...
  • I hope you were able to get some good sleep last night!!! Feel better soon. T&P that the conferences go smoothly so you can rest.
