Only one??

I was looking at the blog and realized that I only posted once in Aug. it was just so busy, getting ready for school to start, I helped Brian get his class ready, it is always a dusty and he had to unpack some things with out unpacking everything because the whole school is moving to the new location in December, (Hopefully) it looks awesome from the outside and I have seen the other new middle school and it is great from the inside and Brian's school is going to be similar. I will try to post pics when he moves in. But I am having trouble with my computer recognizing the memory for my camera so that is why I have not had pics in a while. So anyway, I also had to get my new room ready. A- What I thought was going to be my room, was changed and so I got a half a room that look like a tornado had blown through it and in fact had been a habitat for some RODENTS at one time. I was told to leave it that it would get cleaned out one week, and went back a week later for my meeting with all the pre-school teachers and it was EXACTLY the same, oh except there was more open food to tempt the rodents. I started cleaning a little but had to leave to go pick up my kids from school. I started in the next Monday and spent 7 hours just cleaning and getting out the old stuff and moving the craft supplies into the room. I then had to go find tables and chairs from the basement and get them moved up to the 2nd floor. Did I tell you my room was on the 2nd floor, no I forgot to say every time I needed something, had to ask the director a question I had to go down and then back up the stairs, my legs felt like jelly by the days end, not to mention by the end of the week. Oh and I forgot to say by getting the tables and chairs moved up I meant I carried all the chairs and the janitor helped me carry a very heavy table up 2 flights of stairs. UGH! Anyway Then I had to decorate the walls and make a transportation bulletin board. I was stapling things to the bulletin board about 30 minutes before parents and kids showed up for open house. Oh and the open house that I was told one week that I needn't come to and then at the meeting with all the teachers she tells me that I need to have my room ready and have a activity for kids to do when they come to look at it. That lady makes me nuts sometimes. I mean just tell me what you want and QUIT changing your mind all the time. Last year when she asked me to be the art teacher she said, I could do whatever I wanted and did not have to stay with each weeks themes then she wants me to find out the themes from the teachers. She makes my head hurt sometimes. Anyway we have had about two week of school and now we have had 2 teachers quit, I mean don't you give a job a least a month to see if you can do it?? So now I am covering the 2 year old class on t, th, and doing art in the afternoon on Tues, when the 2 year olds are taking a nap. I can't wait till someone comes back from maternity leave. I am still not sure when I am going to have time to plan the art lesson and get any pre-cutting done. So we shall see.... next week we are making a boat in a bottle, except I can't find boat confetti in this town. So till next time...
