The weekend started early for us with no school on Friday but what did we do? We both went into our respective classrooms and worked. Only for a few hours though. I left feeling like I had accomplished something for once, which I haven't been feeling lately. The kids are going to flip when they come into school tomorrow to see Mrs. Meany-Teacher-Head has moved all their desks away from each other so they won't talk while I am teaching.
The weekend continued with dinner out (who puts bacon in Creamy Potato soup?) during which we listened to (they were yelling, we weren't really being nosy) to a couple and the man's mother out to dinner discussing the most random topics and then it was off to Wallace and Grommit, a very cute movie.
I finished filling out all my kids' progress reports yesterday and we went for a walk with the Mother-in-law who was visiting for the day. Last night it was dear friend Amber's 24th birthday celebration in Seattle. We went to the Jet City Improv show in the U district and it was crazy funny. The most amazing part? It was completely (okay, they said bitch-but they were talking about a dog) clean, clean enough that the 7/8/9 year olds behind us could watch without their mothers blushing. We had a great time. The actors were amazing, coming up with the most hilarious lines and songs.
Today has included reading the Sunday paper, making and eating coffee cake muffins, watching last week's Grey's Anatomy, and enjoying the fire the Husband made. Good times. Now it's more grading papers and planning for next week. Only 38 days until Thanksgiving Break and 61 until Winter Break. Yah-hoo!
