Whooooaaaah…Back on the Chain Gang!!
Posted by mimi on Aug 24, 2009 in dish | 2 commentsNot really, but today is the first day of school! Kids are in and excited, and my feet are *killing* me!! That’s what I get for wearing cute shoes with my Day 1 outfit, though. It’s all my fault. I’ll be back in Crocs tomorrow (the ladylike ones, not the clown shoes).
So far, pretty good, if you don’t count the network crashing halfway through the day so we couldn’t do attendance or anything. The kids were nice, I eased through the “wah wah wah wah” Charlie Brown’s teacher monologues about the Code of Conduct and gave everybody homework. Yep, mimi means business right out of the box when she’s in TeacherLady mode. It won’t be hard…unless they think I’m kidding about the summer reading that’s due next Friday. The phrase “world of hurt” will never mean so much!!
If you can judge the school year by the first day, this will be a good one. I’m looking forward to it. Probably not as forward as I’m looking to getting in my jammies, but you know what I mean. Happy 2009-2010 school year, everyone!
Glad it was a good first day!
I hope the rest of the year goes as well for you. Hats off to you and all teachers. I have enough trouble dealing with one teenager!
