Friday night

I went back to work today which has my head all turned around. I keep thinking it is Monday. Tomorrow morning I have to be at a graduate school orientation from 7:45am - 5pm, and of course this further convinces me it can't possibly be the weekend.

It was kind of nice going back. We are trying a completely new teaching model for our Special Ed students (and really the whole campus) so a lot of people are stressed out about it, but I'm doing an okay job of just going with the flow. Ask me again the night before the kids start up again and you may have a different answer....

The boychild is with his father this weekend so it was looking to be considerably more quiet around here. Unfortunately, my mom got really sick and so I'm dog watching because the puppy was going crazy in her apartment. We played fetch earlier and now we've just returned from a 30 minute walk. I was hoping that she could sleep outside tonight because there is way too much for her to chew up around here, but she is outside barking like crazy. I don't want my neighbors to hate me more than they already do.

The boyfriend had to go do some things at home and then he's stopping by the grocery store and heading back over for a late dinner. I've been craving sausage lately. (Yes, this revelation spawned endless dirty sausage jokes. We're children, what can I say. ) I'm going to cook some veggies and I'm sure we'll have rice thrown in.
