AAAARRRGGGHHHH!!!!

Whew, What a day. It was one of those days that starts out OK, then takes a left turn, leaves the road and heads right into the ditch. You know the ones. The ones that even chocolate doesn’t fix. Yep. One of those.

So, I’ve been teaching 5th grade at a catholic school. This is my second year. Last year I had a class of 23. They were talkative but pretty good and we had a lot of fun. I had some problems – some bullying issues etc., but overall it was a good class. This year I have 16. I thought woo hoo – 16, easy peasy. Ha.  Ha ha ha ha. I wish I was actually laughing, However, I’m not.

I’m considering drinking, but since I don’t drink it seems extreme.

Today they really tested my patience. I hadn’t studied – I failed.

Then while sitting ruminating with the school secretary after school, I get a phone call that my youngest was in a car accident and that the other lady is being transported to the hospital. ACK! Luckily it was just a precaution and Shanaynay was just fine. Shaken up – and her little BMW undrivable, but fine. She was at fault, and got a warning. She’s not in a good space emotionally right now, but physically she’s good.

So now I’m sitting here trying to recuperate and planning how to deal with all the repercussionsof the day. I think recovery is going to involve the jacuzzi, some prayer, some TV and the rest of my Reese’s blast.

All I can do is ask, “is it a full moon”?
