After 24 hours of just wanting to curl up and hide and questioning all my life decisions, things started to get a little better. For one thing, rather than manically adding things to my to do list, I was able to cross a few off!
I stopped by to ask the 4th grade teachers a question and I realized I was better off than they are. They each have 35 kids in their classes and are pretty much panicking. They are great teachers and I know they can do it, but I wish they didn't have to.
Utah has the largest class sizes in the country and I think it is rotten.
Also, their AC wasn't working in that wing of the school.
Talk about adding insult to injury.
(Can I just take a moment and thank all the voters who didn't pass the bond for Alpine School District? I think of you every time our HVAC is on the fritz. So...often.)
Later I walked into the work room and in the same way I can tell when bread is ready to come out of the oven by smelling it, I knew the laminator was ready to go.
Someone else had turned it on and it takes awhile to heat up, so it felt like such a bonus in my life.
I hightailed it to my classroom and got some things I wanted to laminate.
It's the little things. I mean, a hot laminator! What a great world!
