Thursday Thoughts

A student greeted me yesterday with, "Good morning, Mrs. Snyder! You look pretty today."
Too bad 7th graders notice everything. Otherwise, I might try to wear that same outfit every week.

Today at lunch we had multiple students come up to us and show us that their milk was dated August 25th. First of all, gross. Then, they told us they drank it. And, it had chunks in it. Seriously?!?! I'm a freak about bad food/drinks anyway and a texture person. So, my mind can't begin to comprehend how they drank sour, chunky milk. One boy told me he thought the chunks were ice. After the fourth person came up to us, I went and had a chat with the lunch ladies. They graciously took care of the problem.

Then, as you can imagine, all afternoon I was worried about students puking in my class. I hate throw up. I made sure they knew that if they were feeling bad, they were to exit asap. I had one boy take advantage of that privilege. He faked gagged and everything. I'm not even ashamed to admit that I encouraged him, even rushed him, (even though I knew he was faking) to leave immediately.

I haven't run in 2 weeks because my sports bra disappeared into thin air. I can't find it anywhere! You can tell how avid of a worker outter I am considering I only own one sports bra. I bought new ones last week, but they're too small and this week has been too busy for me to exchange them. So, next week it is. I hate how a few minor things can come up and all of the sudden two weeks have passed with no working out. I know I should/could make it a higher priority, but after 12 hour workdays (which I've had 2.5 of this week) and having to get out of bed at 5:30 (which hasn't happened once this week...5:45-5:50 is more like it), I am physically zapped at the end of the day.

I'm scared Orbit might be discontinuing my favorite flavor, sweetmint. I've gone to two different stores two different times and they've both been out. Today when I went back to store 1, all gum had been re-stocked and there wasn't a place for sweetmint. They didn't even have it up front in the individual packets. I'm going to Costco this weekend and stocking up on that stuff! I hope they aren't out!

I've lost 2 sticks of chap-stick in the past week. Stuff seems to be disappearing around our house and that's not okay with me. I bought 3 today. We'll see how long I can hold onto those.

Tomorrow is Friday. I've been on autopilot all week to get to tomorrow. I can't wait to sleep in and relax this weekend and spend some time with my husband.

Happy Thursday!
