Exhausted
Report card week is not fun at all. Not that I expected it to be fun...but marking, commenting, evaluating, goal setting...the idea of it is fun (or was). It's a wee bit overwhelming for the first go around. I feel that I've learned so much this year, and the year is not over yet. I'm already looking forward to doing some things differently next school year. And, I'm trying to implement the things I've learned as I go along this year (which has been difficult since those kids are set in their ways, they’re like old people).
How much can a brain hold before it backflows? Some days I think it's already happening to me. My students laugh as I say one word and mean another. My brain is going faster (or slower) than my tongue, well that's my excuse anyway.
Honestly, just writing this post is exhausting and it's only 8:30pm (regular bed time is 10:00pm, the lights just go out, ha!). This bed time is only beat by my 'pregnant' sister Jen, who goes to be at 9:00pm. Yup, the Pinch family is growing by one. Love it!
Okay, I have a small stack of marking yet so...happy blog surfing.

Darren and Hayden and I had the flu (fever, aches, chills, coughs) for the last two days. We are doing better today. But, the reason I mention it, is that we all went to bed at 7pm on Monday night! AND slept until 7am... with several interuptions for tylenol and advil and wiping Hayden's nose. It is true that 9pm is the standard bedtime around here. We are growing a baby. It is exhausting work!
