Too tired to think!

I am SO sleepy! I didn't sleep last night with this cough.  Nyquil didn't even help.  When I get on a roll it is hard to stop. Need to go see mom before work so that is what I will do this morning.

Mom was doing better by the afternoon...Libby said. It is really hard to talk to mom on the phone. I am going to take her cell phone in and see if it works better. It is like talking to the deaf....she hears nothing you say and just talks.  But I am glad she is eating a little. Her long time friend, Duane Sabin, is going to see her today. That will make her happy! She loves him!

Well, the retreat itself went well.  I didn't cough until the second half.  Dan Diamond was the guest speaker. He is good....the same local doc that went to Haiti and New Orleans when disaster struck. He was trying to encourage us to team up and get through this economy.

Then we get back to the ranch.... Joanna comes and gets me and takes me to her office with Marcey. First, I am reprimanded for my absences...7.  Doesn't matter if they sent me home or the reason for the absence...an absence is an absence.  Normally 3 get you written up and 7 sent packing she said.  Ok.  I guess she is doing me a favor by letting me stay.  Next she said that they don't have the money to keep me and hire a preschool teacher. So basically, if I want to stay, I will be the preschool teacher....for a while.  I will try it for awhile.  Lanny is not happy they want me to be a teacher AND site coordinator but get paid for one job yet expected to do two. We'll see how that works out, right?

Kids are leaving the center and will start kindergarten in public school.  Said goodbye to Russell and Karly yesterday.  That was sad.  The kids don't get it.  Not until the day they don't come back will they understand.  Parents and I get it.  Plus Ms. Juanita left yesterday.  That was sad. She got off at 3 but hung around doing stuff and made sure I understood the reading program and ordering books before she left. Basically she walked me out when I closed and we stood by the road talking for about 15 more minutes. lol! I will miss her and her huge spiritual presence!

I guess I need to get ready to go see mom and then go to work!  Have a wonderful day all!!!! xoxo
