I'm completely overwhelmed. I'm getting to work around 7:30. I'm leaving work around 6. I'm coming home and grading papers and dealing with school stuff until around 9 or 10. Interims go home this week, and I'm not done with mine yet. Tomorrow night I leave school at 4:30, go give a Spouse's brief at IOC then go back to school for Back to School night from 6:45-8. We lose our planning time to meetings like its cool. There's some very beneficial conversations going on at those meetings, but it means that PLANNING isn't happening at that time. So I haven't begun to think about lesson plans for next week yet and if I don't get my copies submitted by tomorrow afternoon, I won't have copies for Monday morning. UGGGGHHHH!
But since I know I won't be posting tomorrow, I'm going to need to find ways to be thankful today:
-Sara's hysterical pictures this week.
-Hubby comes out of the field tomorrow so I can get some extra hugs.
-Mom for listening to my complaining fest today.
-Tomorrow I'll get to eat lunch. (I'm ignoring the obvious negatives here about today's lunchtime...or dinner tomorrow night...)
-Cool, sunny weather.
-Hot showers in the morning. Seriously, I'm not sure I could get out of bed without knowing I was headed into that delightfulness.
-On Demand from Comcast. Um, yes. It's pretty much my favorite thing ever.
-Nutty. He snuggles. Nuf said.

You are amazing....just breathe and let me know if you need help planning or grading papers!!
Miss you!
I hate to know you're having a hard time. Keep your chin up and this will pass! Promise! Pluse you don't have an insanely icky commute!!! Small thing but still a good one!
Deep breaths Ash...deep breaths. :) You can and will get through all this, and you'll become even stronger for all of it. :) Can't wait to see you Friday. I've got a huge hug with your name on it (and I expect Ace to have a huge drink with my name on it) ;)
Oh, how I miss you...I'm hoping that at this point on Thursday night your crazy day is almost over, and at least that's a good thing!
I feel your pain. That's unfortunately all the comfort I can give cuz there's not necessarily a guarantee it will permanently ease...but at least know you're not alone in your frustrations and struggles (no matter how much it feels that way). Big hug and lots o' love!
