That seems very odd to me, that you wouldn't have a schedule yet. *laughs*

Nature of my particular job I guess. The guidance department was still fine tuning student schedules on Friday so there isn't a lot of point to the Speech department looking at them and trying to create our schedule of when to pull kids out of classes for services. We make our own schedules. Plus we have a very transient population in our town. You never actually know who is going to show up! Add in the fact that my supervisor wants to see a bunch of kids in an unofficial vocabulary class but doesn't have administration's full approval yet.... we usually take the first week to work on scheduling. I will attempt a few cell phone pics to show the physical chaos in our room too. I can't even concentrate to work on anything with all that mess!
Planning the week's menu.... then headed to the store. doing laundry laundry laundry..... still need to clean and organize DS's desk, something I should have done with him in June. :barnie I'm not ready!
Oh and he has a half day tomorrow and I don't and there doesn't seem to be any after school program!

Ham rolled around goat cheese and thinly slice pepper-check. Apple rabbits-check. Star shaped pepper chunks-check. Egg molded to look like a fish-check. Chocolate almond milk-check. Who says school lunches are more fun that homemade????
As of 6:40pm my parents got their power back. They are a little too jumpy to think this is permanent. I ran into a coworker this afternoon who spent the weekend away, called a neighbor to find out their power was finally back on, and came home just in time to hear the transformer blow..... :fl that it's a permanent fix! The power company literally went door to door in their neighborhood trying to figure out who had a generator hooked up illegally because apparently that was blocking the signals as to where the problems were with their underground wires...
Tomorrow comes bright and early. Clothes are ready, lunches are ready. I need to make a batch of waffles for DS for quick-ish breakfasts. His backpack is packed. He needs to soak in the tub for about a day and a half. He is GRUBBY!

1 down 179 to go..........
Walked into the elementary school for the first time this year, having been at meetings at the HS all last week. I check my mailbox, got the computer hooked back up and running then went to the front lobby to help greet students and make sure they knew where they were going. I thought it was odd the principal wasn't around but he wasn't a walk-the-halls kind of guy anyway. There were some new to me people there too. Turns out as of last Thursday we have a new prinicipal. They aren't sharing a whole lot of info. The old principal is now a school psych at the High School.
I spent the morning putting the room back in order. Yes, it took most of the morning! Then I headed to the HS where I did the same thing. My supervisor had been there all morning but her stuff was still all over so I started moving it off my area and putting things she used during summer school back where they belong. We can't really do any scheduling because even though the students were handed schedules this am. they are a mess and half are wrong. The best we can do is try to establish a caseload list based on who has actually shown up.
Despite the fact it was barely 70 degrees and raining it was hotter than blazes in both buildings.
Ugh, do I have to do this whole make dinner then lunches get the kid to bed and make sure we all have clean clothes thing AGAIN?? I just want to go to bed!!

I had speech therapy for a year :)

I mostly remember it was very frustrating, but I use those lessons still to annunciate clearly and all that junk ;)

We do a lot more than that too.... but I hate articulation therapy. Usually pretty boring!
