Rough Week

This has been a rough week; more student drama. Students being dishonest, cheating, lying, stealing, being insubordinate. I HAVE HAD ENOUGH. And I am not a teacher. I really had to call on God for help because I reached my limit and was ready to do something that would have landed me in jail. God is so faithful and kind. I am only human and have human thoughts and emotions. God keeps me from acting on those things,and for that I am so grateful. After a 30 second hissy fit, I came back down to earth, remembered that I was the adult in the situation and put a smile on my face and carried on business as usual.

I am determined to have a good day today; so far so good. This weekend my son is going to Toronto with friends, so my husband and I are going to visit the Carrousel of Nations that the city celebrates. We are going to visit the Greek Festival. I love Greek food; flaming cheese, greek salad, souvlaki, spinach pie, lemon chicken soup, shishkabob, the bread!!!!

I still have to finish the financial stuff for the church; I am almost there. I have started another quilt; the pieces are about 2 inches square; so tiny, but it is turning out to be a beautiful piece. I have to find something to tie the squares together; I am thinking a muted gold, but I will see what I can find. I am going to trim the quilt with these tiny pieces just for contrast. I will post a picture when I finish.

A week from today is the last day for students. HALLELUJAH!!! Then I have clean-up work to do; organize the chart room, get my supplies ordered, generate a financial report for my non-existent boss, clean up the copy room, type in the changes for the new manual for incoming students, etc. Then, July 11 at 12:00 noon, I walk out of this place, and return on Sept. 2, 2008. I really need that break; the older I get the longer it takes for July 11 to come. But, I thank God I still have a job.
