Life is not about waiting for the storms to pass- it is about learning to dance in the rain.

How do you spell exhaustion?

I left the house at 7:30 this morning and just walked in the door at 8:30 tonight! I think that's a long day. I did have 40 minutes off for lunch . . . I took every minute . . . and an hour for dinner. I met Bob and Bismarck at Puesta Del Sol for chile rellenos. Yum! The high point of my day.

My room is looking up!!! I'll put in pics tomorrow. I didn't take any today, but I will tomorrow. Parents come for the Open House tomorrow night -- our core meets in my room. So all those 38 boxes of books must not only be on the shelves, but also looking decently organized. Not to mention the mounds of papers I have collected from my little darlings that must be marked and filed. I'm well on my way.

It'll be another 12 hour day tomorrow though. Open House starts at 6:30...school lets out at 3:30. I'll stay until 5. Go meet Bob somewhere for dinner again, then back to school for the presentation. We won't get out until after 8 PM.

Speaking of presentations, the PowerPoint for tomorrow night isn't finished . . . It's on my computer here -- so my work day isn't over yet. I'm tired, but it's an honest tired, not a sick one. I'm not faint, or nauseous, or any of those other nasty things that would have happened just a few short weeks ago. I'm getting close to normal!! (Isn't that terrible?? Normal means working 12 hour days??!!)

Ta-ta. Off to do the PowerPoint!
