It's almost here.

I'm looking forward to this weekend even though it is filled to the hilt. Day off from school Friday to attend a national conference to hear major "playa's" in the history world, to learn something new and yes to shop. First meeting of the "sorority" and seeing my peeps. Now if I can just figure out how to get 80 essays graded, a week of lesson plans and paper filing done.

Grateful

I'm grateful I have a job, no matter how it sucks sometimes, and the fact that the pay while it pays the bills, there never seems to be anything left over. On top of that I've been informed I have to split my "Chair" stipend with another teacher and still haven't heard anything from Sam's Club about the stipend for being their teacher of the year. I'm grateful I have the ability to teach and that I have kids who need a good teacher even when it's like pulling teeth. I'm grateful that I have an undertanding specialist who when I take my anger out on her tells me it's okay and that she still respects me. I'm thankful I received a scholarship to the national conference here in Houston this weekend, only two of us got it in the district. I'm grateful I have a computer to type my "gratefuls" on. I'm grateful that someone takes the time to read this.
