Hello everyone. I hope your day is going well. It is 79 degrees F and sunny here at the Jersey Shore. It is gorgeous out there. The low for tonight is 58 so I need to be sure to close the windows before I head to bed.
Work was busy today. I'm starting to get annoyed with the in-class support teacher. She sits on her computer for all 3 class periods. She has refused to teach even part of a lesson. The most I've gotten out of her is she will occasionally walk around the room and write bathroom passes. We are supposed to be co-teachers. It is not working out that way.
In any case I'm still pretty happy with my schedule and the kids have been really good. Granted it is still early days but it will be a relief if the year stays like this--a relief and a nice change.
On the way back here I had to stop at the bank to get a couple of sheets of checks. I then swung by the rental office to drop off a check for this month's rent. With the way the pay schedule worked out I didn't have enough money in my account on the 1st. I wrote that my ex sent me $$ but I didn't have an actual check to give the office. So that is done. I'm not really stressed about it because I've been here for 7 years and this is the first time my rent has been late. There are some people in this building who get letters on their door like every month.
No big plans for the afternoon/evening. I need to figure out something for dinner but that's about it. What's everyone else up to today?

That sounds like a nice way to spend the afternoon. It is always good when the workroom is comfortable and cool.

That co teacher situation sounds so frustrating, sitting on a computer all period is not co teaching at all. Glad the kids are being good for you though, hope the year keeps going that way. Weather sounds gorgeous there, enjoy the evening and good luck figuring out dinner.

Exactly, sitting on the computer for the whole class does not really sound like co-teaching. Hopefully she gets more involved as the year goes on.

I'm sorry to hear that things are going well with the support teacher. Hopefully things change for the better. At least the schedule is good and all.
I am almost done work. Definitely looking forward to the end of the day and spend some time with my family.

Hopefully it does get better. Enjoy the rest of your workday and the time with your family afterwards. That is always something to look forward to.

I’m having a heart attack…our senator really IS alive! Or at least they got a good body double.
I took a very nice walk today, because the weather gave us a one day reprieve from the heat. Back at the heat tomorrow, so back to the gym. (Actually, I’m getting the oil changed and the software updates for my car, so I’ll be using their indoor parking area for my gym.)

I am working on sharing news stories and completing surveys with the temperature at 92 degrees F and partly cloudy.

92 degrees is definitely warmer than what they are having at the Jersey Shore. Sounds like you have a busy day with the news stories and surveys.

That co-teacher situation would annoy me too, especially when you are supposed to be sharing the teaching. At least the kids are behaving and you are happy with the schedule. Hopefully the teacher eventually starts pulling her weight. The weather sounds lovely too. I hope you have a nice quiet evening.
