Oh the Hecticity!

Yes, I did just make up a word. But it describes the last couple of days at school. Yesterday I was informed that I needed to find a sub for Mon. the entire day because I have some professional development meeting to attend (all day). Ugh. For one, I don't wanna leave my kids, for two, I've never had a sub before, so I didn't know how to get one, for three, it was kinda short notice. Anyway, so I'm rushing to try and figure out how to sign up for a sub and get one that actually knew French and then I'm informed that I need a sub for Thursday next week as well! So, I had to ask someone in the building who was free that period to cover for me. Double Ugh. THEN, I found out that they needed me to move classrooms to a completely different building, by MONDAY! This I found out after school Thursday evening, meaning I had to go in today and try and get my sub plans set up, everything in order for my sub on Mon. When I got to the school where I needed to change classrooms, the office people had already left so I had to track down a janitor to let me into my new room so I could set up for my Sub. Geez. Thank you high school and middle school, for springing all this on me last minute and at the same time! Like, how often do you make a teacher get a sub AND make her move her classroom in one day??? As if my life wasn't hectice enough.

On a positive note, I got paid! YAY, after working over a month, I finally get paid! Also, I'm out looking for a furry companion. I think I've found one, if she's still available. A friend of mine found a previously owned stray who is a sweetie. I'm thinking it's pretty promising. More news on this later . . . .

I hope next week goes more smoothly. However, I bet you handled it all with grace!

Lol! I ranted and raved quite a bit at home to Micah and then handled it all pretty well after that. :P
