Hell Week Continues...

So, you know....Monday pretty much was a sucky day at work. Making a kid cry isn't always the best professional choice, but you know.

Well, the saga of Alice not using her interpersonal skills continued again on Tuesday. I still was a little frustrated by the situation with the student of Monday drama and wasn't feeling it. Anyway...I was just chatting with my 4th hour kids because sometimes you just can't force them to do anything. I went to talk with a student in the back of the classroom and when I got back to the front of the classroom, one of the boys I was chatting with took over my chair. I was not okay with this and asked him to move. Apparently, he did not hear me and I then snapped my finger and said "Hey, Jessie...move it!" I think the snapping of the finger is what triggered some rage in this boy and he got up and said something under his breath and then called me a bitch. For those of you who may or may not know me, I HATE the word bitch. Luckily, I did not speak my mind(I guess I still have some self control this week) and instead said: "Thanks Jessie, that made me feel so good!"

On a good note, I am down 4.2 pounds from my weigh in last Tuesday. Go me. I am really liking this Weight Watchers stuff. The leaders are awesome and inspiring and the program is awesome because I really can eat "whatever the hell I want,' as I told a co-worker earlier this week when he tried to "save" me from the chocolate chip cookie that was in the teacher lounge.

Let's hope that today is better or at least these horrible experiences with crazy students only comes in three. I think I could take one more before the break happens!

Cheers!

Today was one hell of a day. Just wanted to let you know.

Here are the things that sucked about today:
1. Made a student cry.
2. Told a co-worker that the cookies he baked: "They don't even look good!"
3. Mispelled many things on the Health test I wrote.
4. Missed Chuck, House, and The Bachelor thanks to my DVR not working.

I am way tired. I am going to bed at nine thirty. Crazy. Hope your day was a little better than mine!

The week in review.

This week flew by. I think tracking all I am eating makes for the days to go faster. Or maybe it is because I am so focused on it that time just slips away.

Work has been great. The kids really are good to me. I will miss my two Health classes in a little over a week. They will be done with Health and move on with their lives. I worry that I will have scary classes but who knows...it usually works out.

What else? I really don't have much. The boys basketball team at our school finally won a game last night. After the game, I went and played with my friend Kerri. She and I worked on some crafty stuff. Before the game I ate some Gandolfo's and I love that stuff. YUM. That is another one of the great things about Weight Watchers is that I do not have to limit my diet...I can eat whatever I want. (I really feel like I am a commercial for them; it is weird) I just have to budget my points and that is a good thing for me. It does take a bit of planning but it is worth it. I am getting excited to actually get weighed in on Tuesday to see what the results will be!

That is all I have for now. Cheers.

For those who were wondering...

I kinda made resolutions this New Year. I have dubbed this year the Year of Decrapifying my life. Basically, this means, I am going to work each day to get a little of the crap out of my life. Here are some examples. My house is a disaster. I am so unorganized. Each day, since I have been back from Wisconsin, I have done some decrapifying of my house. Yesterday, Operation Decrapifying involved cleaning out my cupboards and fridge. I threw out a lot of things that were outdated and gross. (See pics of the pile of crap from my kitchen and the new fridge look!) It felt good. I also did some washing of dishes. I always have a crap load of dishes. Not so much in 2010. I also have this bit of goo all over my body. It is crappy. I joined Weight Watchers to get rid of that crappiness. My first weigh in was today and I am majorly excited about the program. My social life has spots of crappiness. I am going to be better at dating. I am also going to spend less time worrying about relationships in general. I want to be surrounded by positive people, so if you are not positive....you know.

So there you have it: Operation Decrapify has commenced.

Better get to bed!

A few more pics from home.

Pictures from my trip to Green Bay. My parents and I headed there on New Year's Eve. It was fun to stay with my Aunt Linda and Uncle Tom. They are always good to us. I spent New Year's Eve with my Grandma. We had a big Huven side get together on New Year's Day. It was awesome to be surrounded by family!
Grandma making my new scarf. I was so lucky to bring in the new year with my 84 year old Grandma!
My mom and my Cousin's baby. So cute!
The whole family got together for burgers at Kroll's. Larry(in stripes) is an uncle who I haven't seen in about eight years.

Lambeau Field. It was awesome to be close to "Mecca" again!
