It. Is. Friday.

Here we are at the end of another week.  It was only a four day week, but have long maintained those sometimes feel the longest!  Wednesday was my only day "off", and really, it wasn't.  Robert and I were up even earlier than normal to get him to a Navy commitment.  It was a 75 minute drive, and he had to be there by 6:30.  It was in the same town as my afternoon doctor appointment, and I refused to make the trip twice.  He was able to get a ride back to school, and I ran a whole bunch of errands after having breakfast with my mother.  I was able to be productive and it was a nice day, but not at all relaxing.  I was very, very grateful that Thomas's track meet was cancelled that evening (although not overly grateful for the frigid temps that caused it to be cancelled).

While Tuesday and today I am at the high school, yesterday I was in kindergarten.  I love the little ones, and the day goes by so quickly.  It is such a physically exhausting job though, and in some ways mentally draining as well.  That age can not tie their own shoes or zip their own jackets, and we try to do that all while making sure no one leaves the room or is causing harm to another child.  And, oh goodness, they never stop making sounds!  I am actually looking forward to they eyerolls of teens today...at least those are quiet!

Our evenings have been crazy as well.  Andrew teaches a class on Tuesday evening, and last evening Robert had a track meet.  Andrew was in charge of the concession stand, and since Robert runs in the first and last event we are pretty much there for the duration.  Catherine started her driver's ed classes, which is 3-1/2 hours an evening for two weeks.  It made the Wednesday cancellation of the track meet even better!

Tomorrow I have all day to finish the paining of our hall way that I began two weeks ago.  I am planning to get it ALL done.  It will be a good day to do it because there is snow in the forecast.  We are really getting tired of this weather around here!  Sunday we will be traveling for a 50th birthday party for a friend.  And then Monday will roll around and we get to have another crazy week!
