Unfortunately, I Rememebered

...all the stuff I forgot that I had forgotten to get done over the weekend. Oh well.

I do hate being unorganized though, and instantly regretted breaking my Friday rule of leaving my desks clean and neat before hitting the road.  The disheveled stacks of papers, notes, pencils and half finished stuff was quite demoralizing at 6:30 this morning. When your 10 and 11 year olds have neater desks you know you're in for a long day...

I feel like there is soooooo much to do -- walls need decor, lessons planned, testing scheduled, report cards -- Lordy I have no idea how to do report cards! -- printer needs fixing, Promethean Board hasn't been used in 2 weeks, everything we started 6 weeks ago should be finished by now, behavior handled -- why are they still talking so much?!? -- and in the sacred name of Roald Dahl why have I not set up the class Library yet???

Not only that, but I haven't signed any contract paperwork yet so I'm still working at Sub rate.

On the bright side, I finally got a mail box in the office.

Damn. They spelled my name wrong.

Wasted Weekend?

I did not read any of the Science book or planner.  I did not preview the new Math unit (and practice a few problems).  I did not figure how how to set up the grade book.  I did not get the next lesson ready for Power Hour.  i think there are a few more things I did not do, but I forget what they are.  Or what they are not, since I didn't do them either.

So why do I feel so tired?
