I had every intention of having this post written last night and set to be updated to the blog when I woke up this morning. Well, that surely didn’t happen. By the time I was able to sit down and write a blog post, I was tired. And, I needed to go to bed on time because I had to get up early this morning. Early, as in 5:30am. Are chickens even up that early? (((yawn))) The reason I had to get up so early today is because I was substitute teaching all day. Around here, elementary school starts early and that means that when I work, I have to get there early. (PAUSE for a minute to give all sorts of props to the school staff who do this on a daily basis. You are seriously incredible!!) So, since I was at school all day, I’m just now getting around to getting today’s entry done.
Today, I’m going to take the opportunity to be thankful for being a substitute teacher. Yea, sure, I get up early on those mornings, but that’s what coffee is there for, right? There are some great perks about subbing for me. For instance:
- Flexibility in schedule. Not to mention, getting done right around the time the girls are done for the day.
- Getting to work in the girls’ school means I get to see them sometimes throughout the day.
- Our school has a seriously awesome staff. It may seem like I’m shamelessly sucking up, but I’m telling the truth. Honest. Best staff ever!
- The kids at our school are pretty amazing too! There is nothing like getting some hugs, smiles and even artwork (occasionally) from these kids. Love them!
- A little extra spending cash never hurt anyone, right? 😉
