just one of THOSE days......

Oh geez....where to begin?


Got up early this morning (after getting in rather late last night), as I had to go in and re-set up the classroom after getting it storm ready the other day. Arrived at school by about 7.30am and went to work....in about 10 mins I was working up a good sweat (which showed up real nice in the blue tee I was wearing -ugh!).


The children came in about 8.30 and along with the 15 returning ones we had 7 new ones....with Moms in tow! The class was cRaZy!! I felt so bad for the returning ones as I was just leaving them to their own devices as I dealt with the new ones (after we had the Moms leave), four of whom balled their little eyes out for the first hour (thank God for tylenol, lol).


OK- so the morning finished at noon, and the afternoon went by without any troubles. Dissmissal time though (and it's always like this at the beginning of the year) was more craziness. And in the middle of this I tripped over the leg of a bench- now

Thanks Robyn- I will admit that there was a near miss with a mother*word* yesterday, thankfully I realized where I was though and all that came out was a BIG ouch!! LOL ;-)


It's feeling a good bit better this evening!

Thanks Trish-- luckily it wasn't my big toe (I can only imagine that pain!). I've broken toes before...usual the baby one too, and once (when I was twelve and a girl in my class stood on my foot) my second toe. This time it was the fourth one (on the left). I was sitting there guarding it all day. The kids took pity on me, and really took care moving around me! The shoes I'm wearing are flip-flops (do I have any other kind of shoe, lol? Maybe...but they're the most comfy for me. If I don't have them on I'm in my slippers. I just have to be more watchful. Thanks for your 2c on taking care of it ;-)

Oooh...purple is such a pretty color. I'm just not sure I'd like it on your toe. I can't imagine how sore that sucker must be. Here's hoping it feels better by the weekend. Enjoy what's left of the evening!

I think THAT toe would be bad!

Sylvia & Nicole- thanks for your thoughts. Again this morning it feels so much better....though still colorful. I'm going to be careful where this foot of mine lands today as I can just imagine one little bump setting me back. Once again, thanks ;-)
