the good with the bad
one of those days.
my work day was short- i mean it went fast. it was hell.
i got lots of hugs. several kids think hugs around my legs are good.
i’m completely wiped out and exhausted. i’m playing hookie tomorrow.
the walk to class tonight took forever and was incredibly cold. i wasn’t late like i was last week.
i had time to stop at starbucks for a divine and necessary coffee concoction. i dumped every drop of it in the bathroom.
too many people in class to keep track of how many times each person is contributing (which was my big drama last week- that the grade is primarily based on class participation). i had no trouble raising my hand today.
early class so i had time to eat dinner at a diner after class with the peops. littleloudone is loud and argued with everything i said.
i just got an email from LLO’s teacher and she really likes her. LLO so far this week has rolled her eyes at the teacher- oh wait, it was “what I am just moving my eyes around in all directions”-, poked a classmate with a pencil several times because the classmate didn’t think her pencil point was sharp enough, said she can’t get detention in elementary school, has lost recess every day, and has been in the principal’s office.
my wine glass is empty. there’s more in the box.

have i ever told you that you are adorable. i meant to.
Oh dear. Sounds like a stressful day. Pour another glass of wine.
At least you got some hugs, though.
LLO LOL
take a load off, c.
Enjoy your evening and relax:)
@complicatedlight - tough call on that kid. do i laugh or what. @leaflesstree - and then i stepped on a cat and spilled wine everywhere. can’t win today. @be_the_rain - i’m so freaking adorable i need therapy.
@Grannys_Place - trying pretty hard to do that. thank you.
she certainly makes me laugh through you.
LLO LOL, i like it. she’s a character, all right. has lost recess every day? sounds like she is giving the whole class including the teacher a fun recess while class is going on, heh.
@be_the_rain - i have no idea where she gets it. (yea, i like it too. totally works. ) @complicatedlight -
box wine sounds good tonight, it’s getting below 0.
Oh.my.gosh. What a day! And you dropped your Starbucks? That is major suckage right there. Is LLO is an interesting child! LOL! Enjoy your wine!
@godfatherofgreenbay - mellowed me right the heck out. @songoftheheart - and it was a venti. i might have said a bad word. yes, she is. good thing she makes me laugh.
llo time in school sounds really normal. so? wheres the problem??
I think LLO is somehow related to me!
I’m sorry for your rough day.
But, thanks for making me laugh! That last line got a snort outa’ me! 
I’m sending over a barrel of wine for you! Might that be enough?
Aw, and HUGS and hope you get a good sleep tonight!
so. the teacher really likes her. ? sarcasm? or ironic endearment?
were you loud when you were little?
@plantinthewindow - she actually does like her. LLO is a cool kid. – i’m still loud.
@AdamsWomanFell - gave me something to write about, didn’t it? today will be a better day @buddy71 - shoot, there’s no problem at all.
LLO sounds like one of a kind FUN for teachers! My little brother (11) is the same way. Except he’s already been suspended this year. *sigh*
@onestepcloserto_perfection - suspending 11 year olds is stupid. just saying.
I always hated recess. I would have gotten myself in trouble to get out of it lol… Give me a book!
Glad to hear the talking in class worked well this time. Maybe the climate will stay comfortable
@oceanstarr - i suspect she’s not all that sorry to lose recess. 5th grade recess: girl cliques, boy football.
thanks. it was random, but i stayed awake. in theory.
@promisesunshine - Sometimes just staying awake is success in its own right!
@oceanstarr - oh my… EVERY day. why do you suppose i need the coffee.
