I did not go to work today. I took a personal day. This morning I went with Michaela to her school. They were having pastries with parents this morning. Last year I tried to do this with her before work and it just didn't work because I would have been late. I promised her last year I would do my best to be there for it this year. So, I was able to keep my promise on that. It was cool going in to school with her.
When I left her at school, I went to the grocery store. It took me less than an hour to get the grocery shopping done. It goes so much faster when I'm by myself. It was busy because it's Thursday, but it wasn't as bad as it will be tonight.
After I got home and put away the groceries, I paid some bills. I also got the bank statement reconciled. It felt good to get that done.
By then it was lunch time. I went to Taco Bell to get lunch. I came home with it and turned on Haven to watch it while I ate. I remember eating, but I don't remember lying down. I woke up an hour and a half later and had not even realized I'd fallen asleep. I really think I needed that nap. I'm just really emotionally and physically spent from work this year. I haven't felt this kind of stress since the second principal we had at this building.
This evening was Michaela's swim practice. Michael got home in time to take Caleb to football practice. I talked with the mom who is a first grade teacher, too a lot tonight. I really like her. It is her daughter's first year on the swim team, too.
I wish I didn't have to go to work tomorrow, either. But, at least it's Friday tomorrow.
