It's been a tough week

This has definitely not been my most favorite week.  In addition to ALL of the other things that are happening, I've been in a tough sub job.  A teacher was out all week and had asked to have me so it would be consistent.  I knew it would be more challenging than normal, because he has really tough students.  They are all freshmen, which I don't mind, but while my husband is fortunate enough to have an absolutely fabulous group, these students are not.  These are many of the same students that were the reason I said, two years ago, that I would never return to sub at the middle school.  I had hoped maybe there had been some maturation, but clearly it is not nearly enough.  I am grateful to know that I am scheduled all of next week in classes where I should not be interacting with those who are making this week challenging.

Of course as I always say, being a Friday makes everything better!  And the really great part of it being Friday is that once I get home today, I don't have to leave the house again until tomorrow!  The kids have swim, but Andrew and I can just hang out, and maybe even take a nap!  I'll be able to do laundry, and band work, and cleaning, without worrying about what time it is and getting cleaned up in order to leave.  Even though I can't just sleep in until whenever tomorrow, sleeping in even three hours will be absolutely delightful!  Thank goodness for the weekend!
