15 minutes of computer time in the morning and 5 at night, and the rest of my life has been swallowed up by school and family.
That would be ME at the moment except my family doesn't even get much of me. I actually made it home by 6:30 tonight!
I don't have regular classes until Friday so I have zero take home work for now. So I'm not at that point yet, but I'm definitely on here waaaaaaay less than during the summer.
Definitely tired and sometimes it is too much energy to write a really good response to a post I will catch up more this weekend since I am now all organized and settled for the year (until something comes up of course ).
That's me! There is soooo much paper in my room right now. I just thought about throwing them all away. Piles for the office, piles for them to take home, piles for the upcoming field trip next week, piles for the first benchmark in two weeks, and another pile for IRIs. I want to go paperless. I think I'm going to go to bed early. My teen is driving me crazy at home and he has a bad case of "I didn't do it.... it was someone else" syndrome.
I told my caretaker after school today that I'm burnt-out already--and it's only day 2! I've had 2 days of--"What should I do about ___?" "Can you come to see ___?" "What did his teacher last year do with ___?" "Could you just make these couple of phone calls?" "Could you fill out these referral forms for me now?" "What are you teaching periods 3 and 4?" "Could you explain again how you are doing writer's notebooks?" "Could you make me a copy of the rubric you're using?" Then, I come home--"Is there any more milk?" "Where is the peanut butter?" "Didn't you get any juice on the way home?" "Can you sign these forms?" "I have soccer practice early tonight." Arghhh!!! I wanted to crawl into bed early tonight, but my husband just went out for a run so I have to go out to pick up my daughter from soccer in an hour. I never remember how totally exhausting and consuming the first couple of weeks of school are! Hang in there everyone...
uh-huh - after having a year in 4th grade, and now being back in kindergarten, I have forgotten how busy kindergarten students are at the beginning of the year! I am pooped!
That explains why I am stunned for the first hour and sometimes two after school before I can start working again. That's a bad habit because it places me home at too late of an hour. I literally am brain fried by the end of the day.
Tonight, though, Dh took the girls out for a Daddy date - leaving me three solid hours alone in the house. AHhhhh.....
I have been MIA too and I am just now off to bed, I felt like I was hit by a bus today. And I have a good group.
ditto from me too. Too tired to write what makes me tired but you can use your imagination. Feet hate me.
Creativity is not visiting me, TIRED too... ... tired and very tired... I went to bed too late the last 10 days, Here it´s the end of winter, let me be honest ... I´d like it´d rain at weekenend , this way we don´t go anywhere and we may stay at home.
Yep. I always feel awkward posting a bunch of things in a row and then cutting out. I was so tired just a minute ago that, as I was clearing off the dinner table, I realized I LEFT THE NAPKINS on the table so that I wouldn't have to reset them in the morning. I'm praying for my job clearance to hurry up so I can work and have an excuse for why nothing gets done around the house. I can see a mysterious bucket filled with goldfish from where I'm sitting and have no idea, none, how they came to be there. New lows.
