So my romantic Valentine's evening will be a Cub Scout meeting.... Maybe I should have them make construction paper and doily valentines for their moms....
Maybe not.
Fun day at the HS. Most of my kids were fine. The hallways were insane. Valentine's Day was on a Sunday last year, my first year working there, so maybe I didn't notice all the nonsense. Man, what a bunch of annoying jerks we have. I know, I sound like a broken record.... my day ended when a student who was just hanging out in the Spanish class across the hall decided to throw his broken pen against my door. It, of course, exploded ink all over the floor. And my door was open so it was all over MY floor as well as the hall. As he slinked away the teacher suggested he clean it up. His comment, "Why the ___ should I clean it up?" Well, why the heck should I??? But I did, because if we'd waited until a custodian was able to get there an entire class would have march through it. I'll spare further rant. You can imagine...
It is warm! Like over 45* warm!! High winds expected tonight though. Don't like that at all!
Tomorrow should be interesting at work. We have a consultant coming in to observe the bilingual pathologist's kindergarten student that I also work with. I am walking on eggshells these days because I don't feel her therapy plan is appropriate for him. My supervisor, who is not his therapist, believes I'm right, but it isn't my place to blatantly tell her she's wrong. So I've been asking questions as a way of suggesting other ways of doing things. I'm interested to see what the consultant has to say. I'm not looking forward to working with him with a room full of people though. It's going to be a long morning!
