I know why I don’t teach elementary school

I am going to contact my member of Congress and ask that all elementary school teachers earn double their salary next year.  I’m also going to let God know in my next prayer that you all get to take the speed lane to heaven.  I helped out at my son’s school during an after school fun-run and I about killed 5 little kids.   Because of that I didn’t get to exercise but it was nice to spend some time outside.  I’m doing well w/food (just ate supper) so I’m not going to let a lack of exercise get me off track.

Kyle is sick again so I have to take him to the doctor.  I’m guessing it’s another ear infection and it’s a doctor that we don’t know so I hope I don’t have to twist his arm too much to get an antibiotic.  I know they’re trained to avoid them if possible but antibiotic resistance is the least of my concerns.  Most of the docs in the practice know that I basically get what I want, let’s see how long it takes me to train this guy.  If I have time to write more when I get home and catch up on a few blogs I will.

    lol! that’s for sure. I was a camp counselor during college and I thought that experience almost led me to go get my tubes tied right then and there!

    My oldest son works at a YMCA before-and-after-school program at an elementary school and he LOVES being around the kids but admits that the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd graders are much easier than the 4th and 5th graders. (He eventually wants to be an elementary school teacher.)

    Me, I wouldn’t survive in that job for a day.
