We have my coworker’s grandson and it’s a sad, difficult family history but she and her husband are raising him and he’s doing well.

And today I got to stop her in the parking lot to tell her he got 100 on the math test. He beat his smug frenemy who’s higher in math. He did great.

Complimented a kid’s glasses and said they made him look smart.
“Like I’m a nerd?”
“It’s fine being a nerd. I’m a nerd and I don’t even have glasses?”
“So why don’t you get bullied?”
“Because I am 32.”

I found a new possible big field trip location and everyone is on board so I hope we get to do it.

Feels like is -10, no delay.

I’m so fucking cold and I’m INSIDE.

It’s so fucking cold and I can just tell that they will not be calling a delay.

But we’re in a code blue which means busses must pull over to pick up students who are walking and they aren’t. Parent told me they blew right by them.

It’s too. Cold.

I have to assign the fifth grade classes highlighter colors that won’t clash with the vibe my planner has going on and I just don’t know if I have that many.

The one bright side is these kids are my first ever full year second graders and they’re awesome. First year of the current team too.

Kid got upset bc he spilled on his shirt first thing so his aide got him a hoodie from the nurse and he was soooo happy. It was from an old local sports team.

But I did have to go up to her and the teacher and say ok but we should probably have him change back bc they are major jehovah’s witnesses

Realizing tomorrow is my last normal day possibly ever 😭

It’s gonna be -20 windchill at peak walking time for kids coming to school but if they even delay I’ll be shocked.

Turns out fifth grade is being super reasonable and I dodged a fucking bullet bc the other grade my coworker is being split with is already committing war crimes (against our contract)

Dreamed I found a cross eyed gray kitten with yellow eyes and I named her Cat Fandango. But she was so healthy we had to see if she had a family first. And then I woke up.

It’s so fucking cold but until it hits -20 they won’t cancel school. Majority of kids walk but yeah let’s make them walk in -10.

So multiple energy drinks in a day actually makes me feel like I’m literally dying so I will never do that again

You know

On Sunday I was really at peace. Had an extra day off due to the snow day, was cozy and comfy and clean. Watched a good movie, felt relaxed and content.

And I remember thinking to myself “I think this is the last time I’m going to feel like this for a very long time.”

Welp.

I have less than 2 hours a day in classrooms now.

I don’t know how they’re gonna break that up, but it’s 7 classrooms total. So I imagine they will be cutting my presence in my grade level.

Also ticked one TA gets to just fuck off and do barely anything all the time while everyone else

I’ve had 400mg of caffeine thanks to this cup

I’ve got the hobonichi app and it has me take a picture to put a cover on every day and this felt ironic giving the shitstorm today was.

I checked schedules and if he puts me between multiple grades I won’t be able to work lunch or recess. Which is a sizable chunk of my paycheck. Monitor duty is a lot.

So I would be doing twice the work for substantially less money.

I was so excited for my phone case and it’s the wrong size. And then my coworker messages me that our boss has decided that since they overworked another TA into quitting I’m just going to have to do her job on top of my own because he won’t hire anyone new.

I fucking hate it here.

They put me in kindergarten today.

The kindergarten that made a teacher quit midyear and has my best teacher friend transferring.

And I had it EASY apparently.
