I started the day with 1/2 a cantaloupe, and cherries for lunch.
I picked roses and agapantha for the secretary and attendance clerk before school, Gave the secretary an early birthday card and mailed cards to the retiring teachers.:-)
Then I promptly jammed the copy machine. (the big, fast one with all the bells and whistles.
I told the secretary, Annette and she snapped, "I just got here." (Well, I knew that)
I didn't need it fixed that minute, I just wanted to let her know.:-(
I have a student coming to work for an hour or 2 her penance for lost books. Who knows if they were, I was buried in books and kids were helping to check in and some were not accurately checked in. Then the principal came to see me to ask me what I had left to do and what happened with the book check in. DO I go and recheck in every book? Maybe so.
I finished all the science books.
The girl, Megan, was asked to take the stickers off the magazines and but them away in the back, Instead of peeling the date due stickers she peeled off the bar coses from all the magazines. Very well done, the were covered with a plastic cover. Now we had to rebar code them, re catalog them and delete the old barcodes. a lot of fun, So much for student help. She was helping me copy too and tried to take all 100 pages instead of the first 20. I wondered where the rest of the package went.
She was good at putting paper in the machine until the toner ran out.
Then I moved to the high speed copier in the teachers room and went through 4 reams of paper making 100 pg. grammar handouts for 60 kids. No fun. I "should" go in one more day. I jammed it again and Megan mixed up yhe 100 pages I was coping so whp knows what I have in the final sort. I do know, I killed a tree and have a bankers box filled with grammar handouts. I dropped them off at summer school to lighted the load in the car.
I may get 47 miles to the gal. but weight matters. It has to carry me. It doesn't need 100's of lbs of books and paper for extra days.
I stopped and bought croc flop flops on the bar home not exactly what I wanted, but the didn't have black on black canvas so I got black soles with a white and black print. Then I went and got another pair of SAS shoes W and 1/2 size wider. Then for krmon ice and to get some sunglasses with thin lenses and that thing to the tune of 430.
I vame home, frove into the garage around 7 gathered my bags and fell between the car and the garage wall tripping over a bin,onto my knees, I laid there and whimpered awhile looked for blood or help and when there wasn't any, pushed myself up on all 4's. I'm such having my flip flop's on and my hands full didn't help. At least the garage was carpeted and I had a pillow to put under my knees while getting up. Ouch! OYE!
Hurt and geeling sorry for myself I still went walking with my neighbot...now the whirlpool and ice. Felt better after the walk.
Hate that Thursday show Swingtown in CBS at 10.
