This morning I did my next to last crappy morning duty. It is truly the one thing I literally LOATHE. I had no more sat down at my desk when my kid comes into my room. Her ear hurts. I am thinking drainage it's fine. I send her back.
I finish packing up my room and haul whatever is necessary down to the bookstore. I even manage to clean up my room a little. It is a pretty bittersweet experience. I have the first two periods of the day free because the seniors are gone. Although this may initially seem like an awesome thing (and it is but...) it makes for a LONG day. I have always been a multi-tasking overachiever. What takes most people days to do takes me hours. I am not bragging. I just get crap done. So now I'm kind of getting bored. Either way May 22nd can't get her fast enough.
My kid comes back to my room with more earache. I take her more seriously now because she never complains really and rarely gets sick. I sent her to the nurse for a tylenol to see if that would help.
Now it's lunch and I usually don't eat lunch but today we had a catered lunch for all teachers. And it was sort of a goodbye dinner for me, both coaches, and two elementary teachers. It was really good and I really enjoyed myself. After lunch I have another free period. Yippee. But it quickly ends because my kid is now full on earache. I get a sub for my 6th period class and head to FC to the DR. Now let me just say (and I know how this is going to sound) but I don't know how health care providers work in this area. I don't know how they do it. Seriously. I have never heard so many cell phones and cell phone conversations in my life. One wouldn't even get off the phone when the nurse called her back. She had her to WAIT. I would have snapped I tell ya! And if you are for some reason thinking she was black...you are wrong. Both races were represented and I have to say the black patient acted wayyyyy better than any of the others. It just boggles my mind. Where is the home training?? I just don't understand. My mom would've beaten me senseless if I acted that way to persons in positions of authority...heck to anybody actually. I know I am from the Delta and it will always be "home" but "home" ain't what it used to be. Sorry. And for those thinking there are problems everywhere...yes that may very well be so but I am in the market for some "new" problems. One never knows . Anyhoo, one ear infection and antibiotic later and we are on our way.
I get home and Anthony actually is home as well. I am ready for the gym. I go and think maybe I'll try the kickboxing class. It's ONLY 30 minutes. OMGoodness!!!!! I will not be able to walk tomorrow and am fairly sure I may have had a mini heart attack during the hellish bootcamp. LOL I am going back on Wednesday though for sheer sadism alone. I have let my "paunch" get a little over the belt if ya know what I mean and MUST do something NOW. I'll keep ya posted.
Well I'm done so I hope all have a wonderful week. Later......
