Happy Weekend Everyone!

Things are a mess right now at the house. Between the various pipe issues, the fridge, the van, and everything else things are really a mess. But my spirits are still about half way up. Keep your fingers crossed for us that the plumbing problem will not be too expensive.
I was so excited (for about a minute) to think that I was going to get to work in my classroom on Monday for the teacher workday. But Friday afternoon we all get the email that we have to attend a seminar at some school in downtown ATL and be there before 8am. For heaven's sakes - it really doesn't make any sense -the administrative decisions that are made are bizarre. I just don't know what to do, especially now with the latest release of information regarding the teacher cutbacks. You know you always hear that there is this huge teacher shortage - I finally become one and so they decide to make cut backs. I'm sure art will be the first to go so there goes my wish for getting into that subject. I don't know what I should do.
On a positive note I did get showered with Valentine's from my students. It's funny because on Thursday I was so mad at that class and they all knew it so they must have decided to try to make nice. I think I got a valentine from everyone as well as 2 stuffed animals, 4 flowers, cards, and candy galore. I also got a ceramic elephant candle holder.
Yes, sounds a little different but it was really quite thoughtful.
I can't wait to go to the tea party next weekend. Except that it will make the weekend fly by. Sunday Caroline also has a girlscout function to attend so my weekend seem to go by super fast.
I can't believe that Feb. is half over either. I guess that it is good that the days are going so fast because that gets me closer to summertime.
Peace out. JO
