Today is a 4 glass day. Not a good one. There were tears (and some of them were mine).
Ohhh... that's not good.

How is that you are seeing all the 5th graders? Did your school do some sort of reorganizing thing?

One of the other 5th grade teachers told me today that I am the only sane one on our staff because I keep my job in perspective. It is just a job. We have a "Martha Stewart" type teacher on our staff. Her room is always perfect. She's on all sorts of committees, working on her Master's. Her job is her passion. That's great for her. Trouble is... she thinks it should be that way for all of us. Nope - it's my job.

I don't feel like I keep it in perspective sometimes. Nights when I'm lying awake trying to figure how to set up my room so that A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I J and K are all separated from each other...

How about yoga instead of wine?
