Morning Guys!! And thanks for the congrats.


So, I had a nice start to the Monday....while I was letting the dog out, bathroom sink overflowed and flooded my bathroom floor....sigh, making me late for school.

I feel like Puss in Boots in Shrek...."I Hate Mondays!"

My Monday's already been strange too. Stayed home with sick kids (they have an entire grade worth of kids out today) - and I'm sick...woke up with no voice, a 1/2 open garage door and a missing toaster. And it's been 11 hours without a query R from NB.

The world as I know it is upside down without that 2 min. no.

Um, a missing toaster? That's freaky!!! There might be some serial toaster snatcher running around.

KINKY!

A flooded sink and missing toaster?! Man, I hope I don't have anything like that! Last Monday it was the adapter on our Wii (and hopefully not the Wii itself) that blew up. Today, I've just basically made a mess in our kitchen/living/dining room. That's all I'm good for these days...making messes.

Ugh, Jamie, I feel your pain-- my oldest is home sick today too, and he was heartbroken b/c he loves school. I'm sorry you're sick on top of it though! And I hope you find your toaster....

Laura, our Wii bit it the other day too, and I have no idea why.

Sorry about the swimming pool in your baño, Krista!

Thanks Kate!

Found the toaster! My husband took bagels in to one of his customer's offices and thought he'd take our toaster too. Mystery solved.

Kids are feeling better than me today - no fair!

I cannot make coffee! Screwed up yesterday, and it came out brackish. Screwed up today and it came out too strong. Finally got a good batch though.

Sigh....fairy tale has busted and major buzz kill this morning.

My Department Head came to talk to me during my planning b/c of the hellish 7th period class. Allegedly someone had complained. Sigh. She said she knows it's not my fault since I've got an awesome, clean record, and that it's 22 boys, yada, yada...at least that's what she's telling me. After all, I was nominated on the news for a teaching award, lol.

So....I gotta write four asshats up....have another come to Jesus with my class, etc. Sigh.....

How's everyone else's day?
