We had our work Christmas party after school yesterday. Matt rented out a movie theater for us and we watched a movie.
It was great (especially after he settled down and stopped yelling Marco, wanting us to yell Polo--the best elementary principals are actually children at heart, I think).
He also gave us all a gift card for soda and popcorn. We chatted in the line for snacks and got comfy in the theater (I got a recliner!) and all lamented that we hadn't brought blankets.
Tyler, a young father with a lawn business side hustle besides being a really great 6th grade teacher, went around with his phone as a flashlight, looking for spare change under the seats.
We teased him and he said, "Hey, I've already made 50 cents!"
So maybe he has another side hustle.
We watched the movie, Next Goal Wins. It isn't going to be my favorite movie ever, but I enjoyed it. We laughed together and just relaxed.
At the end, nobody had to clean anything up. We walked out of theater, still laughing and chatting and got into our cars and everyone went home.
This is the kind of low bar lifestyle that I appreciate!

What a great idea. It also keeps everyone from talking to school so it is truly a break.
