Apparently I am a jet-setter

Written 10/17/10 and not posted for some reason...

  So I took today off and flew up for a baby shower on saturday. It was great to see old friends, and considering I haven't been in constant contact with my friend who is having the baby, it was an honor to be invited. It will be nice to not have a full week of school, the TEST is tomorrow and Wednesday, so that means a long two days of basically watching paint dry! Oh well, it means I don't have to plan a lesson right? And next week is three regular days, a half day, and a PD day, so I can survive that. Mom comes back down a week from today and from there it is go, go, go! We have a party planned for Halloween, a possible weekend away for me, a 5 day weekend away for both f us, (thank you Veteran's Day!) and then she leaves and heads back north for thanksgiving. My best friend from the crib is getting married the saturday after thanksgiving, which should be super fun, but precludes me from going home for the holiday...(not a problem crib buddy, just an observation!) After that, there are literally 3 weeks until we are done for two weeks for Christmas break! I will definitely be flying north for that...another post for that whole shebang, but what I am trying to say is that it isn't that far away!
  I am sitting here, soon to be boarding the plane, and thinking how I just want to keep playing! This whole being an adult thing is stinky! ( I guess if I loved what I was doing for work, it wouldn't be work, and I would love doing it...) It is what pays for the jet-setting around the country for weekends away, but still!! Whoever said teachers have soo much time off...we really don't!
