Stop and rest

Sorry I disappeared for a while, but as many of you know, it's back to school time *insert tears here.*

Thursday we had meetings at school. Our principal allowed us a few hours in the morning to work in our rooms. I started writing the kids' names on everything. So many things to write their names on!!! Class lists we posted Thursday afternoon. I left school not too long after 4pm because I had a massive headache. The dust and mold in the building bothers me a lot. Hopefully it gets better and not everyday ends with a headache.

We had "Meet the Teacher" and "Parent Orientation" Friday evening. I got the chance to meet all of my kids. Manny took their pictures so I could put their pictures on their book boxes. I will be doing that sometime this week. *Fingers crossed*



Here is my room all ready for Meet the Teacher! I will have to take a close up of their tables. Each student has a cup with their crayons, pencil, scissors, and glue stick in it.

For "Meet the Teacher," I put an "All about me" paper on their tables so they could read about me :-) I also put a paper of how to sign up for remind 101 which is a way to text your parents without them getting your phone number. It's pretty cool. I hope to get a good response about it from the parents. Lastly, I put a poem on their tables. Our awesome Kinder Team Lead found this cute poem to read the night before school starts. We put a little bag of confetti in with the poem because in the poem it says to sprinkle some under their pillow for a great year :-)

Friday night, Manny and I watched the movie "Olympus has Fallen." I fell asleep at the end so I didn't know what happened. I told Manny I wanted to finish it before he took it back to Redbox. He told me I should've stayed awake. Haha how rude! He let me finish it though. Movies like that are so funny! One guy saving everyone. Macgyver! It was a pretty good movie though.

Today has been emotionally draining! I have done so much crying it's not even funny. First Manny had to tell me that something was wrong with Muñeca while I was at a wedding shower. My sister offered to take me home, but I stuck it out and stayed. Later today some more drama happened. I am just worn out. Manny and I went grocery shopping around 4 and my eyes were just killing me. I just wanted to sleep. I am not sure what all of this means or why this is happening to me, but I am still moving on. I saw this on Facebook and it just got me thinking...

"Don't worry about people TALKING about you. If no one is TALKING about you, then you're not doing ANYTHING. And the only REASON they're not talking about you then, is because they don't know you EXIST. Let the dogs BARK, but the caravan keeps MOVING."

Well this caravan is still moving! Haha!

To end on a lighter note, I changed the sheets the other day. Manny decided that he wants to sleep under the mattress pad because it is cooler. Bahahahaha!!


The bed is a little lumpy :-)

I hope everyone had a restful Saturday. Enjoy your Sunday and go to church! Haha :-)
