Another Monday has come and gone. I've got four left of this school year. It was an ok day at work. It's teacher appreciation week. Our principal had breakfast catered in for us. It was pretty good.

Tomorrow we start the Terra Nova test in our school. One of the aides at our school is coding my test books for me. This is such an incredible help. That is one of the most time consuming things in the world to do.

While I was helping one of my students during math today I hurt myself. I was bent over his desk helping him figure out what he was doing wrong with a problem. All was fine until I stood up. I don't know exactly what I did to cause it but I got a pain shooting through my lower back. It's been bothering me ever since.

This evening has been a pretty normal Monday night. Except, Michael's parents came by with their new vehicle. They got a Lexus Hybrid. It's beautiful. Michael got to drive it and the kids went for a ride. I did not feel like climbing up into it and then trying to get back out of it with my back hurting. I'm sure I'll get a chance to ride in it at some point, though.
