Day 17

Today seemed to fly by, but why is the month of September dragging so much?? At least next week we'll be into October. On top of that, we have Monday off for Yom Kippur, then the following Monday off for Columbus Day, then the following Monday the kids don't come in until 9:30. Fantastic times coming up, I'm sure.

My 2H were extremely rowdy today, but given it was the last block of the day, I guess they're entitled to it. I don't see them again until Wednesday (and then it's first block), so hopefully some of their giddyness will have worn off by then, but not too much!

My 2CP are still a huge struggle. Most of them could care less about taking a language other than the "I need at least 2 years to go to a college in the state." I mean, that would be great motivation if they had to get like a B or C in order for the credit to count! Why is it that some of them can barely find the 5 minutes to complete a worksheet of the stuff we went over the previous day? Yet they come after school when I make them (b/c they haven't done their homework) and are finished in 5 minutes? Seriously now. Hopefully we can make it through this year though, and hopefully they WILL learn something, whether it be better study habits and/or Spanish.

I slept most of the day yesterday (because I had a terrible headache), yet I'm still pretty drained today. I suppose I should take a nap or something, but I usually never get around to that until it's time to cook dinner, eat dinner, and sleep. Grrr... I need a job where I can afford to hire a maid. I'll even do the cooking if the maid does the dishes!

Headache's coming back....

Sorry, I've got to read many posts, so this isn't really a comment. I wanted to say that I've seen your comment and that the reason you have problems posting comments most probably is because you aren't an "in beta" user yet. If you are able to already, shift. It works much better.
I also have problems to comment onto your blog for the same reason.
