Well today SHOULD have been a Monday with the way things went. I was scheduled to have a planning day with my team in the afternoon. Unfortunately, I didn't get a sub. The sub from a first grade class was supposed to come down to help cover the afternoon....only they didn't. So basically, I thought I was going to have the afternoon "off" only to teach all day. Well, that stinks.
Shortly after finding out that I was going to be in my room all day, I was taking deep breaths and calming myself down in my room and I grabbed a notebook to put it away. I flipped it back to the first page.
"I calculate my due date as July 15, and Shady Grove wants to do an ultrasound on....."
And that was all it took. I was a wreck. And I had 10 minutes before I had students in my classroom. It's amazing to me sometimes how close to the surface those emotions still are. All it takes is my being a little off kilter when I get an obvious reminder of what I lost this year and I fall apart.
And in an extreme episode of REALLY?! That's the plan?!.....when I got home this afternoon there was a freebie mailer of formula in my mailbox. Thanks Similac. It's really what I needed today.
But don't you worry, world, I've got a class of wine and I know how to use it.

Wow...*big hug*. I hope your glass(es) of wine helped! Heart you Ash!
HOW did it get worse? Good grief. A major REALLY?!? Here's to Wednesday being better?
Glad the wine helped. Stupid diet won't let me have wine, or else I'd have a glass here "with" you. Hope Wednesday looks better for you!
