my productive day off!

so, i had taken today off to get my report cards and grading done.  i woke up around 9ish (it felt GOOD to sleep in!) and got right to work.  i finished all the grading, took a shower, then entered the grades in my grade book.  took a little break for a late lunch and then averaged all the grades.  it took a while!  finally, i put all the grades in the report card program.  that took all of 20 minutes.  by then, it was about 5pm and i didn’t know what to do with myself.  so, i went grocery shopping and got some dinner food and a LOT of weight watcher meals.  what could i say?  they were 8 for $10. Pretty good deal and now i’m stocked up on lunches for the next 2 weeks or so!  I got some hot dogs too (i haven’t had one in so long!) and some fruit cups and stuff to make tacos later on this week.  i also did dishes today.  i just returned a library book and filled up my gas tank so i’m feeling pretty proud of myself.  I got a lot done!  now, i think i’m gonna do some straightening up.  i need to pick up the living room and put the laundry in the bedroom away.  i really could go to bed, but i know i want to keep on top of this house stuff.  one of my personal goals is to be more neat and tidy and i’ve been doing pretty good lately.  but right now, my living room looks like it was in a fight with random papers and magazines and shoes so that needs to be cleaned up before bed.  i’ll feel better about myself when my head hits the pillow and i’ll be happy to come home to a tidy house tomorrow.

work is gonna be busy tomorrow!  i have a meeting during my planning time and there are a few kids that didn’t turn in their science packets so i need to grade those before school starts and put the grades in the report card program.  since i had today off, i’m sure i’ll have some grading to do from today and of course, the grading from the work the kids will do tomorrow.

has anyone else felt like its the end of the week?  all day i’ve felt its thursday and its really only tuesday.  maybe its the time change, or maybe its the weird wednesday due date for the report cards.  i dunno.  but, maybe a good nights rest will straighten me out. 🙂
