Too early in the week to feel this tired

It is Tuesday morning.  We are only one full day into the week, and I am tired.  Really, really tired.  Yesterday was a longer day than I expected.  When I arrived for my half day of work, they asked me to stay through the afternoon, and also to cover other classes during the plan period.  I barely had time to eat lunch.  Although I did expect to be here all day today, I am again covering extra classes, and it's not particularly fun to walk through the halls with students a foot taller than I am!

Anyway, last night was the year-end band concert, awards, & desserts for the band.  I decided to ask parents to help donate desserts instead of attempting to bake 600 on my own.  I had Robert and Thomas along to help, although Andrew was teaching his final night class of the year.  Because I am in charge of such things, there is no leaving until everything is cleaned up.  It was after 9:15 before we all got home.

This evening Robert has a track meet.  It is the league competition, so even though it is raining it isn't going to be cancelled.  They have informed us they will wait it out and do everything they can to get things in this evening.  Robert runs in two events...the very first one and the second-to-last one.  I'm keeping my fingers crossed that we are home by 10 and can be in bed shortly after.

I'm not currently scheduled to work tomorrow or Thursday, and I'm cautiously optimistic it will stay that way.  I would certainly appreciate some extra sleep!
