ummm...

It's late. I'm never up this late. It's at least an hour past my bedtime. But, I'm waiting for Art, who is still working. He's been there since 6 AM - that's16 hours, and he has to go back at 6 AM tomorrow. A few of the guys are working all night, mine better not be one of those guys.
I miss him. I'm not so good at being alone, and while the dogs give excellent love, they do not provide excellent conversation. (Ok, I actual converse with the dogs alot, in my own voice, and my impression of what I think my dogs would sound like if they could speak. It's a little ... um... crazy person, but I spend a lot of time with my dogs! And you can't look at Rudy in the eye and not know that he's got something to say!...) Anyhow, I thought I would use these moments to blog about my pathetic loneliness and inability to stay up past nine... on second thought, maybe I should write about school.

For all those PTA Mom's out there...Thank You!! Sincerely, we appreciate your love, energy, and creativity...However - don't plan Spirit Week on the 3rd week of school. And don't include Crazy Hair Day, and Backwards Day ...when we haven't even taught the kids to walk nicely forwards. It's been a crazy week, to say the least.
I am slowly gaining control over this bunch of kids. They are the most interesting group I have ever taught - and I've taught some interesting kids. There seems to be an all encompassing lack of self motivation.
(PS - It has just become apparent that the football game is over and Alta has won, as there is a significant amount of screaming and honking outside my window.)

umm. apparently I can't form sentences very well this late, as I have sat here with my fingers on the keyboard, but I am not typing anything....hmmm, maybe I'll just go sit on the porch and talk to Rudy while we watch the teenagers drive by and wait for Art.

I'll try for sentences again tomorrow.
