Random..

Well yesterday was definitely an enlightening day. My first day at work was not an entire district back to work day. I had to go in for the day to just sign off on IEP's for all the new classified kids entering the school district. So I basically spent the day signing my name to various documents. Easy right. Well, not so much.

First I had to spend my day with an a**hole that I was not intending to have to see, I even had to play nice. I hate that. I hate not being me, and pretending things are "just peachy" with someone that I clearly am not happy with. But we were in the presence of others so I was cordial.

Then to add to my misery, I checked to see that my class list was what I believed it to be. Well, NOT. SO. MUCH. I can no longer refer to my class as "my boys". I have a new GIRL added to my list. Well, this may not seem like a big deal to most, but let me tell you, to have a female student classified as emotionally disturbed, she must be pretty bad. In ten years I have had 3 girls. The last one was about 4 years ago and she left me to go back to jail. So needless to say, I am less than excited. Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against having girls in my class but they just add something not needed to a room filled with ED boys. It never works.

So between the asshat, and the new list, I was not a happy camper yesterday. I came home cracked open a beer and called my savior to come fetch me for dinner. Mandy always knows exactly how to cheer me up. As soon as she got there she handed me this framed picture...

This is me and my "Princess Fresh-Girl". I love this kid more than anyone. She has a personality as big as my day is long. Hence the name. She is three, opinionated, stubborn, gorgeous, and one of my favorite people. This was her third Birthday (In February), we were playing with her mom's new camera. She stilled called me Tissen, she has since learned to say the KR blend and I hate it. I am no longer Tissen.



I can't get over how fast she is growing up. Here she is just weeks after she was born...


Gawd, I love this kid!!! Thanks Mandy for brightening my day. AND huge Congrats to her hubby on the good news!!!

So tomorrow, I took the day off from my part time job to enjoy 2 last days of freedom before I go back to the whole 7 day work week... I'm heading to the beach for a BBQ and then Monday will get some R&R before the fun begins!!

One last picture just for fun... and for Her. She asked me to post a picture with me in all my curlyness!! This is me and my Brother, we had these portraits done as an x-mas pressie for the rents. I was about 25. I don't have any recent pictures because it's been about that long that I've been straightening my hair... so there you have. Me Au Natural! hehe



So that's it for now... I'll keep you posted on the "Boys & Girl" scenario.

~Have a Happy Holiday Weekend.
