It's official! In 3 weeks, I will be sitting in meetings listening to how this is going to be the best year yet. I will be wishing I could be setting up my classroom and planning how to get everything done and how to stay organized and vowing not to get behind in grading work, but knowing that by the end of the year, I will be piling papers into the recycling bin one more time.
21 days before lessons must be planned and class lists of students will be poured over, wondering how the new year will compare to years past.
3 more Saturdays and 3 more Sundays before I have to squeeze into my jeans again (I really shouldn't be eating that chocolate cake, but it is oh, so good) and putting on a fake smile and pretending that I'm happy to be out of the house and sitting in uncomfortable chairs.
I better use these three weeks wisely. I still have 70 quilts to get done for the Birthday Bash for the foster youth and rooms to clean. It is like fighting the never ending battle of too much stuff. I get one room done and turn around and the next room is full again. I'm hoping the botox will help with the frequent migraines that slow the work down. I go in on Wednesday to get the shots again and should be feeling better by next week, just in time for back to school :)
So far I've been able to resist buying new school supplies. From all of my cleaning, I've found lots of supplies around the house and hopefully I'm set for the year.
