Random Tid Bits

1. This week is review week, and the time when last projects are due. Next week is finals time. It's super busy where I work. I have teacheritis. It's kind of like senioritis, but for teachers. I just want it to be done, and over with. The stress of who's going to pass, who's not trying is getting to me.


2. Mica has a jiu-jitsu tournament on Saturday. Sensei says it will last no longer than an hour and a half. I'm thinking it will last way longer then that. Last year there was a lot less people. It was only supposed to last a few hours, and went most of the day. I seriously thought they should have taken a break for lunch. You can expect kids to preform well when they aren't fueled up. It was the first year they did it though. I just think they under estimate their time.


3. I've lost 20 pounds now.


4. Isaak has a different friend that he talks about each week. This last week all I heard was, "Breanna" this and "Breanna" that. He made a few pictures for her. Then she made a few pictures for him. It's hard enough for me to get rid of little man's papers (he wants to keep everything). Now he wants to keep Breanna's drawings. Isaak says, "We're BFFs." I just shake my head.






5. I wonder if all elementary teachers save most of the field trips to happen at the end of the year? Both of my boys have had many. The whole school went to a baseball game, Kindergarten through 2nd grade went to the park, there is field day, and Isaak's class is going to the farm. Trying to remember all of them is maddening. I'm not good with stuff like that! That's the part of me that's glad I only have 2 kids. Next year I have to take note to have plenty of loose cash around for all these field trips.
