The end of fun

Lord have mercy what a long few days this has been. From school to Valentines Day to just stuff in general, I feel like I am doing as much as I possibly can just to keep from getting swallowed up.

I teach at two schools now so that I can make some extra money. It means that any spare time I get really feels like I am cheating because there is literally ALWAYS something that I need to be doing.

It's Sunday, and I have spent most of the morning working on the "stack" of papers that I started on yesterday. Although, to be fair, I had played with it a little bit throughout the week. However, I am proud to say that I am done with the virtual stack with which I started the weekend, but...

Now I am getting emails from students who don't know how to read the comments on the software. I am also getting emails from students who don't know why they can't see discussion posts. Somewhere in the questions and answers, I really want to scream, "FIGURE IT OUT!!" to these students, but I need to keep this job. Anyway, later today when I venture to the office to start on my actual job, I will be able to address these issues. Perhaps a little more cool-ly? Lord, I hope so...

So yeah, it's work, work, work as of late. I did get to go out for a fun night out on Friday. It was Valentine's day and Greg and I went to a thing at the museum. It was fun and we had dinner at restaurant. He says we will go out for a nicer dinner since what we had there was really mediocre, but I honestly cannot fathom how we will make time for that.

He works all the time, and I feel like a loser when all I want to do is sit on the couch and not think.

Planning to call Nathan today and see how his first Saturday school went. He's not in trouble! His school has officially used up all of it's snow days, so they had to have Saturday school to make up for the lost day. He was not happy about it when I spoke to him last. In fact, he was discussing how he might actually talk his dad into letting him skip it. I would never agree to that, but I have a feeling his dad might. I really hope Bill stood his ground on that one. Crossing my fingers.

So much left to do today, but I am trying to keep an eye the fact that I have already accomplished a lot.
