How is it only Wednesday?

In all actuality, I am pleased since I think this is our one quiet day. No track practice. No play practice. No board meeting. My only “must do” item is get those trash cans out since last week they didn’t. I sometimes wish there was two of me. I could have one here at work earning a living, and the other making sure the living is run smoothly.

Dax’s practice went well yesterday. I was happy to see him run a lot more than he did last week. His sprinting is good, but he still needs to work on running through the finish line. I also noticed that his tendency to look to his side to see who is next to him. He does this in the same way he does it for soccer. Hopefully it doesn’t slow him down too much. He is still one of the fastest in his school in terms of the ones he has been racing against. Let’s cross our fingers he rocks in on Friday.

Next week the play is in the morning. Look, I love an excuse to not be at work, but this thing with the schools doing things during the school day is getting ridiculous. I know teachers have families and blah blah blah, but dammit, you know what you were signing up for when you became a teacher. We want parents to be more involved, but how can they if you keep scheduling things during the times when most parents work?

Andy and Scott are coming down in a couple weeks. I am going to spend a lot of time over the next couple weeks making sure Steve looks his best. Neither of them have seen Steve in all his glory. Andy has been there during the makeover, and of course both have seen pictures galore, but I really want the place to shine. Perhaps time to poke Ken to get that painting done!

Of course, it means that next Wednesday when I am done at the school by like 10:30 I will have the rest of the morning and afternoon to work on projects! YAY!
