Wednesday's Words

Work is just insane right now. My coworker that I co teach with had her baby on Sunday so this week has been a whirlwind trying to figure out what she has and hasn't done. Needless to say there was a lot that wasn't done that we are trying to figure out. Her sub is great and we're getting along really well but it would have been nice to have more time to get prepared for her departure.

Speaking of my co worker, sh*t hit the fan the two weeks before she went off on leave. It was a total high school gossip fest and I was ready scream, well actually I think I did scream (into a pillow). You see we haven't had the best communication. I kind of gave up after she just did things without us discussing them first and deciding together our plan of action, and to top it off she's majorly controlling. It was just a disaster from the start. I tried to reach out to her via e-mail and she printed off the e-mail and gave it to administration. It was just a MESS but I think we finally got a few things ironed out and hopefully we'll make some progress while she's gone so we can get off to a better start when she returns.

I'm hoping that things calm down some now that the second quarter will be over next week but there's a lot to get done before then. I'm usually a VERY organized person but things are just out of control right now because I feel like I have no time to catch up. I've been working a lot at home and staying late at work. I'm just glad that we have some time the first week of February when we have conferences to get some planning and catching up done.

Oh and can I just say that I'm thoroughly disappointed with my O.lay wrinkle creams. My face is flaking and still very dry. I'm going to give it another month or so to see how my smile lines look and if I can really notice any other positives before I try another brand. I had Th.e Bod.y Sho.p sample face cream regime awhile back that I had forgotten about and I think I may try that again because the night cream was really great for my dry skin. The problem was that it was pretty pricey.

Have a great rest of the week, it's hump day!!!!!

Man, drama between coworkers is so annoying! I can't believe she would print out an email to show someone else??? That is totally high school. I hope things start going smoother soon!

Thanks for the suggestion about distracting myself with knitting - I didn't even think about that and I think it's a fabulous idea that I'll have to get started right away!
