One of those days
I've had one of those days; the other teacher's smart boards work-mine has no electricity, fight on the playground, student yelling at me-2 detentions-2 calls to parents-2 sets of excuses, a review for a test-one wrong answer-tears-hyperventilating-more tears-throwing up, hooty duty in library-no break, meet a mom after school at her car, to tell about upset wrong answer hyperventilating son, 2 emails to teachers trying to explain sons poor grades lately, home to meet the plumber-doesn't show up, daughter has overdrawn her checking account-2 times-call to tell her to transfer money, 2 parents call to explain sons fighting-one doesn't think punishment is fair and thinks I am too patient-try to explain my decisions and reassure them that they have good boys, dinner picked up at Rosas-come across students parents inside who ask me who in my class had pornography-no idea, cold dinner at home, pick up my son from baseball game hopefully before 10:00, finish homework....pass out? fall on my face in prayer? WOW! Hope tomorrow is not as eventful!!!
