wonderful day....

today was a really great day.

it started this morning with my hair looking really good. the humidity does nothing for my hair no matter what kind of product i put in it...and on top of that my hair is getting longer and more bell-shaped...so it is near impossible to have good hair...but today i had really good hair. i went to target to pick up toilet paper, which i forgot to buy yesterday while there and i made an eye appointment which has been LONG overdue. so wednesday i will be getting my eyes checked and getting the right kind of contacts that i need and new ones that aren't 10 months old. after that i went to staples to get some posters laminated for this fall and the girl was very helpful and gave me a teacher's discount and didn't charge me to trim the posters...which really was great! i pick those up tomorrow.... from there i decided i was going to find panera...no matter what. i found it...it was pretty easy and did not take long at all. AND to my surprise it was located in this really nice outdoor mall called "the avenue". so i ate at panera (broccoli cheese soup in bread bowl!) and from there i went to barnes & noble (my love!). i ended up walking around for an hour just looking at everything and bought a really cool book about unusual places in america and a big question and answer book...both for my classroom and a "where's waldo" 2010 calendar...also for my classroom. after b & n i went to pier one and hallmark and then came home. it was just the perfect day...the weather was gorgeous....people were friendly...i had good hair...it was just delightful. :)

now i am home and i am washing all of my kitchen items because they have a new home. next weekend i am meeting up with aem (which some of the stuff was hers to begin with) to pass off all of my items that i am not taking with me to becks. i am so so so happy that all of my items will have a home and that the girls (aem, hlb, and smp) will hopefully be helped out some. i am not sad to part with my things....i am happy they will be used and aren't just going to goodwill.

summer school--one week down--two to go. {{sigh}} i have one boy that is learning and one boy that is who knows what. he frustrates me. i have to really try not to let him know that he is frustrating me. i don't know how much they are actually retaining...but i am doing the best i can with the time i have to do it in... it is what it is.
