My Life Has Returned!

At the beginning of the week, I had set a goal to get all my assignments and everything else finished and turned in by Friday of this week! I'm so ready to be finished with my Master's. Well, I accomplished that goal and even did it a day early! Everything is submitted and uploaded, so now I'm just waiting on grades. I feel like my life has returned, no more sitting in front of the computer all day on Sundays working on homework!

So what am I doing today with my first day of freedom...sitting on the couch, curled up in my blankets with a sinus infection! What a way to start my new freedom! Thank God, Brad is getting ready to leave for work and I have TiVo!

Chaotic Thursday - Need to Relax!

I love my job in the library. I love my job. I said this today, I don't know how many times. 5 out of 12 classrooms had subs today including all K and 1 classes. Which just leads to chaos. Plus the principal and guidance counselor were both gone and somehow there is an unwritten rule that all questions and problems are directed to me when this happens. So I had a total of 250 students come through the library today. 100 of which are looking for a great book, because "we don't have any good books in this library" of over 8,000 titles. Along with my favorite question, "Do you know what books I checked out, I can't remember?" Really quality reading happening there! Then we got a shipment of 20 new computers and where do they go? The Principal's not there to direct them , so they get piled up in my office. Nice!

The point of all this is that as I'm leaving school I call Brad. "What did you say? Someone called in sick? You have to work until when? You won't be home until after 9? Oh, I'm so sorry. Ok, I'll see you then, bye." HOME ALONE ALL NIGHT!! YES! YES! YES!

I stopped and picked up dinner on the way home (Taco Bell that just opened back up in town. Teaque will no longer starve.). Took the dog out and then ate while checking my email. Then I took a bath and read a book (totally a middle school book, but for some reason the title caught my eye ;) ) After relaxing there I curled up in bed with my laptop and the Generic TiVo and caught up on House from the other night, until Survivor, Grey's and ER came on. What a way to relax on a Thursday night?

I hope that girl that called in sick is ok?
