Not enough caffeine

There doesn't seem to be enough caffeine to keep me awake today.  Unfortunately, I'm subbing so sleeping is not an option.  I had really hoped for a delay this morning, although I was pretty sure the dusting of snow wasn't going to get it done.  I was right.

It's been a long week.  I've worked Monday, yesterday, and today in a classroom that has some challenges.  The three morning classes are fabulous and I've come to have a good rapport with the kids.  The afternoon classes are rough, and one class is downright awful.  It's a mentally draining afternoon.  I refuse to allow those hooligans to chase me away though, especially since I enjoy the morning students so much.

In addition, I've had to work at the church this week and our new secretary is learning the process very slowly.  I had a dentist appointment and Catherine had an orthodontist appointment.  I had to make a trip to my home town to help my mom with a cell phone issue, I had a meeting last night, and tonight I am volunteering with Thomas's youth group.  The kids still have swim, and I'm grateful Andrew has been such a huge help with everything.  I know this is nothing that most parents aren't dealing with, but I am sure am tired right now!
