Yum!

Chipotle was offering free burritos to any one that showed up in Cardinal red today. I love Chipotle, so of course we had to go. The line was loooooong; and we were in a sea of red!
This is where Chipotle is...










This is where we were!

Too funny!

Poor Jesse! He wasn't feeling very well last night, and decided to take some Alka Seltzer. But, instead of putting them into the glass of water, he started to swallow them like a pill. Oh my gosh! The look on his face was priceless, when those tablets hit his tongue and started to melt... As sick as he was we both got a pretty good chuckle out of it... Just too funny!

It just doesn't matter!

First, I seriously doubt that any one is following, or even looking at my blog, and thought about just deleting it. But, then I realized that it's a good way for me to vent, so even if no one else, besides myself is reading this, it just doesn't matter.

If you're wondering what set me off, it's a combination of my students, the administration, and now parents (or today, grandparents). Seriously, I'm to the end of my rope. I can't change the behaviors of these children... I've tried... And, they're just plain MEAN! They pick on each other like chickens pick on the weakest in the flock. And, they literally don't give up until they've done some damage. It's frustrating! If I had my "druthers" I'd be sending several of these kids home to their parents, and not allow them back in until they learn some manners. I cannot stand contention, and it is what I deal with on a daily basis, and it's not fair to me, and it's certainly not fair to the students in my class that are really there to learn.

I am SO FRUSTRATED! I hate it, and I hate my job!!!
