Oh Friday. I'm so glad you're finally here!
[one] My husband has been home sick with the flu since Tuesday morning. I feel terrible for him! I've managed to avoid it so far--last night I started coughing, but I hope that's all that I'll see from this nasty illness. Usually I'm the FIRST one to catch these things!
[two] Being a teacher in the month of January is no fun. On top of kids coming back not remembering what they learned just two weeks ago, we have all kids of assessing to do. Reading assessments, math assessments, and more reading assessments, plus conferences for the end of the quarter and anything else that has to be done to satisfy the district. We have to fit this all in with at least three days off in January--plus we've already had one delay.
[three] Speaking of delays and weather, I'm SO glad this polar vortex or whatever it's called is over. I finally walked out my door this morning without gloves and a hat and a scarf. Just my sweatshirt. I'm glad good ole' NC weather is back!
[four] This weekend is B-u-s-y with a capital B! Tomorrow we have a Time Warner Cable person coming over to do some things with our system and my cousin and her wife are having their reception. Sunday I have to take the kitty to the vet for a teeth cleaning and we're going to dinner for my uncle's birthday. Most weekends either end up crazy busy like this one or with nothing to do--is there not a happy medium?!
[five] I completely forgot to wash my hair and my face in the shower this morning. WHAT in the world is going on with me?! I had to employ my dry shampoo to do its dirty work (ha--see what I did there?!) to make my hair look at least a little bit decent for work today. It's currently up in a ponytail. I pretty much love Fridays around here...jeans, a tshirt, my school sweatshirt, and my hair thrown up in a ponytail is totally acceptable. Winning.
I hope you guys have a great weekend...stay warm!
