Oh, iced coffee with Hazelnut and extra skim milk, how sweet you are to me.
Sissy and I are at Starbucks sipping our chosen nectar and catching up on life as Wilson Phillips plays in the background. What a nice time.
Coming home is always good for my soul; it feels so right.
Thursday is almost indescribable. Bell 6 was just beyond tolerable and me being extra emotional that day made for an unfortunate combination. I actually had to leave the room. I was just so frustrated and I didn't want to say something I would regret. My heart was just so broken for them. God is so good and blessed me with a great support team of teachers. Of course, Mrs L was my go-to and then some others came in the room to help me through my moment. Here's hoping things are on their way up.
This week at school was Homecoming. Some of the kids really got into it and dressed up. My favorite is when the teachers participate, so of course Friday "paint the town purple and gold" was awesome! The football players asked different teachers to wear their jerseys to show support...and I don't mind saying I had 3 offers :) It was the pick-me-up I needed after a really bad Thursday; grateful for the little victories.
Another small victory: getting my lamp built. Not such a victory: realizing the shelves for my bookshelf are in storage while the shelf is in my room.
That was quite the fun discovery. But on the up side, my room is coming along and Maya gets home tomorrow. It'll be nice to have everything settled and just be able to leave work and come home and not have anything to hang up or assemble or organize.
Tomorrow is the 3rd Annual Mud Bowl at church; I am BEYOND STOKED!!! I can't wait to post a post-bowl picture up here (now that I know how to do that).
The mud. The kids. The games. The tackles. I just know it's going to be great.
And a release I need.
Another fun thing: I'm getting more teacher friends. Mr Ah and I have a funny e-mail banter going. Reading the e-mail is like opening a prank gift everyday; so funny.
