five weeks!

it's been more than five weeks since i updated for real, and we only have five weeks left of school!!!
i know we're all at the countdown stage by now, right? :)

i caught senioritis pretty early on and have been mentally half checked out for at least two weeks. however, june promises to be pretty cool (not literally of course; enter the kids' nonstop whining about no air conditioning here) with lots of field trips! I've got two booked and am working on a third, plus we'll do a field day. that's four in one month! sweet!

i got a nasty cold two weeks ago and actually took TWO days off from school. this has never happened. usually i get sick, hack and cough and feel miserable at school for a few days, finally take a day, and go back feeling just as gross. please note, however, that the two days were not in a row. which was stupid because i was at school for two full days (and one was a trip!) with barely a voice.

but i'm much better now. :)
especially knowing that there are five weeks left!
