I have said this all year long since I've taken this middle school job, I'm extremely glad/thankful/happy that I got the offer to work at the school where I'm currently employed. Last night, as I was emailing a regular education teacher back, I realized (AGAIN) what a great staff I'm working with. This means, also, what a great staff the students get to have as teachers. This particular teacher was checking on accommodations for one of my students, to make sure that she was doing all that she could do for him. I was pumped! How wonderful is it that the teacher cares so much about how these students are doing. It's great to realize (not that I didn't already know...remember, I've been saying it since the beginning of the year) that you really, truly enjoy, and love your job. Who would have guessed that I would actually enjoy working with middle schoolers. Who would have guessed that I would enjoy the bad and good, the hormones raging and the smiles in the hallway. I would pass up working in a middle school for anything now!
On a different, more odd note, a piece of my car is missing. YES, missing. It's not a hub cap or something that someone would like to sell for money. Oh no, it's a random metal piece that would have been attached to the top of my roof. But it's gone. I have absolutely no memory of a long (probably the length from my head to my knees) metal piece flying off my car. Do not remember it. Unusual, huh?!
If you're looking at it from the front, it's on the top left side. Do you see the long indent...well, there is supposed to be a long metal piece there.
...Like this, taken from the back of the car on the OTHER side.
How did I not notice a long metal strip flying off my car?
uhhhh, weird.
there MUST be a long metal strip stealer in your neighborhood.. once they start up, it's all down hill!!
