Originally Posted By LVBelle Oy, this past month has been SO hard! It started when our drunk neighbor hit my husband's little junker car. The insurance company called it a total loss and we had to buy a new car. I love it but it stretches our budget so tight, I'm worried about money all of the time. Both of our computers went down at once, luckily mine was able to be fixed but the computer with the webcam is still down which makes me miss my family even more now that we can't see eachother each night. Going back to work was SO stressful. The first week was great but this week has been horrible. I've gotten new students almost every day, 5 in the past two days! I only get to see my husband for about a half hour Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. The other days one of us works so we only get some time together, never an entire day. Last weekend when the air went down I wasn't able to spend time cleaning the house. I just don't have the energy when I get home from work plus I try to spend the time with Jake so the house is an absolute disaster. And I have friends coming over on Saturday to scrapbook. I can't even look forward to it because I know how much work has to be done before then. And I'm just plain exhausted. I haven't slept a whole night through in a year and a half. Even when Jake sleeps, I end up waking up now. And with everything going on at work, once I wake up, it's very difficult to get back to sleep. I just want ONE morning to sleep in. Just one. It's not going to happen any time soon though. Waaaaaahhhhhhhh! OK, whine over. Time to think about going to bed (yes, before 8, I'm pathetic.)

In related news, I need to get some money out of petty cash to buy a mop and a bucket. The good news is that no books got wet. Biggest casualty was two boxes of paper napkins. Sort of ironic, huh?

Originally Posted By smedley My cold seems to have settled in for the duration, and I'm on nightshifts, how is it that the 2 things always seem to happen together?? On the upside...

Originally Posted By LVBelle Awww, sorry Pirate Princess! Smedley, luckily he didn't break the skin. I do have a bruise there and I am really sore today from restraining him so he didn't hurt the other children and destroy my room. I don't know when he's coming back but I'm not looking forward to it.
