26 more days!

My student and I figured out today that there is 8 more school days of Grade 1 and 18 school days of Grade 1 in June. Amazing.

I can hardly wait.

I am going to be applying for another job this week. It is another one at the Hospital that will keep me busy and away from both UI and The Lake this summer.

Summer in scrubs.

Not much else is new. Having some stress with the men in my life. But it's not worth talking about.

I hope everything is coming up Millhouse for you!

I thought they were special

On Thursday, we had a talent show at school. The staff did a really good version of "Summer Nights" from Grease. A few of the staff were dressed in 60's atire. The Teacher that I work with was wearing a poddle skirt, and had her hair in a ribbon. The students were sitting against the wall after the bell rang and the Teacher came out and told the students why she was dressed special and what the special event was about. When the students started to make their way into the classroom, one of my cute as a button little boys stopped in front of me and said,

"You're not wearing anything special."

:)

(I was wearing my lululemons and a top from Old Navy).

It was a very good day

I had a good day. I got a bunch of free stuff last night and had a good time with some friends. When I came home, I had a great conversation with a great friend, and then fell into one of those I-don't-know-how-I-fell-asleep-sleeps. I slept in-ish and got ready for work. One of the gifts that I got last night was wonderful Margarita smeeling body lotion, so I used it this morning.

When I got to work, one of my students and I were working in the hall, and he touched my leg (I was wearing a skirt). I laughed when he was taken a back by the lotion on my leg. He smelt his hand and told my that I "smell like the sun".

After recess I took another student for a walk. She was holding my hand and out of the blue dug her nose into my arm. I thought that she was wiping her nose on me, so I asked her what she was doing. She giggled and said "You smell like a flower."

Onto the afternoon. I took a group of students out into the hall to do small group work. One of the girls looked at my arms and legs with a big smile on her face and said,

"It looks like you have brand new skin. It's so shiny."

:)

I did some running around after school and then did some Yoga. Now, I am finishing off the evening watching Sex and the City re runs and drinking a latte. I also named my latte maker. Taylor, after the charecter in the song "Taylor, the Latte boy" by Kristin Chenoweth.

I liked today.

another day off

I took the day off today becasue I was not well, and becasue I had a headache. I woke up around noon, confined to my apartment for various reasons. I cleaned my place a bit, watched and tok pictures of city construction workers outside of my building laying ashphalt (ONLY becasue the Kindergarten class studies a PWIM picture of road construction). I tired to get a hold of a friend that I had tentative plans with last night. I watched a bunch of Sex and the City, and I must say, I thought that Mr. Big was a lot more mysterious than he is.

And with that, I'll go and get ready for my evening.

Goodness, they're still so HOT!

weekend update.

I came home from work sick today. I wasn't really sick sick, I had trouble walking and felt a little light headed. It's a long and complicated story.

I have been watching 'Sex and the City' reruns all afternoon, which is really the only thing that I could do front my couch, where I set up camp. I had only ever watched the very last episode when I was at my nanny job one night and the kids had gone to bed. I do remember crying at the end becasue I didn't want it to go off the air.

My weekend was good, I worked on Saturday and then Sunday was Mothers Day. I got my Mom a bunch of products from the company that I don't push anymore, which she really enjoyed. At first, I was going to have everyone (7) over for dinner. I woke up early and cleaned my apartment - not regular cleaning, "Mom's coming over" cleaning . My family was at the lake for the weekend, and my Mom called me and said that Dad would be staying out of town and that one of my siblings had plans. We changed plans to go out to eat, but ended up ordering in at my parents place.

Talk about good planning.

I wrote my final for Medical Termonology this week

It was super hard.

It was about 7 pgs and very hard.

The last pages had a bunch of Acronyms. Our Teacher told us not to study, but just to glance at that part of the text a couple of days.

One of the acronyms was RBC. I didn't know it, so I left it blank.
When the exam was over, I waited for a friend of mine to be done.
I asked her,

What does RBC stand for?

and she said,

"I sure hope it stands for Royal Bank of Canada, becasue that's what I wrote!"

My students love that I teach them words that I learn in my med, term. class.

I love the new episodes. Meredith is grown up, which is kind of hard to get used to.
Christina is trying to break out of her robot shell and become a human.
It's so funny.
I think that I am turning into a Robot,
becasue I watch shows like this, and I watch couples in my rear view mirror,
and honestly almost get physically ill.
I couldn't imagine wanting to be with someone.
I think dating is a scam.
There is a part of me that thinks about someone a lot,
but it's too much to write about on here.


I think my happy is broken.

I love working at the Hospital.
I like working and working and working.

I just get like this sometimes.
I just need to be patient.
