Monday I subbed in the middle/high school life skills/special education class. Love the fifth graders though I do, the experience was the most fun subbing I've had yet. It's a small class and the kids are great. Plus, I didn't end up with a hoarse voice and a wicked headache like I do when I'm in the elementary school.
The paraprofessionals are basically in charge when the teacher's not there, so that makes it easier on me. But I graduated with one of the parapros (and it's her mother's class), so she knew what I could handle.
I'd definitely like to go back if they'll have me.
Tomorrow I'm going in to talk to the school district's business manager about state budget cuts and what that means for the school. Washington is cutting levy equalization by about 15% and I-728 funds by about 68%. The meeting tomorrow is to make sure I've got the expected dollar amounts correct for the paper. If I do, the school district is losing...about $600,000 in funding next year.
I could talk about how frustrating and scary that is, but that would just make me sad and, well, frustrated.
So instead I will say that season one of Supernatural came from Netflix yesterday and I've now seen exactly one whole episode. Exciting! I vaguely remember planning to watch it initially, but then work and school and other TV got in the way. (Thursdays are unlucky sometimes. I lose my TV watching stamina.) And like I need things that negatively encourage my over-active imagination. But now I'm giving it a shot.
And it's fun watching Mom try to remember Padalecki.
