Oh what a productive, and wonderful week; last week was excellent!
After working at a school, the week before last, they 1st extended my hours; then they requested me to go back all last week!
My boss is extremely proud of the wonderful job I've been doing there, and the awesome compliments the principal told the school district about my performance!
I actually prefer working with littles; 3, 4, 5 years old, or even 3-7 years olds. High school kids will work your ever lasting nerves! So disrespectful to the teacher, and even rude to me, but I wasn't absolutely not phased. A few were really sweet, and all of them are super smart.
I definitely do not miss special education, but I do feel like I'm serving more of an important purpose working with autistic children. Either way, I know I'm doing my job correctly, and work hard.
I don't think I ate dinner once last week, because i eat well at work. I can literally eat the same snacks for my breaks, and never ever get tired of them. I just love carrots 🥕, cucumbers 🥒 and ranch dressing!
Today, I'm finally going to make that pineapple 🍍 & kool-aid recipe that was trending hard, and filks still making them & selling them. I keep forgetting to make it, but the ingredients are on my kitchen counter over a week.
I'm trying to decide what I'll put my ground turkey in, for my meal preps for next weeks lunches. I think some chicken flavored rice & veggies. Maybe I'll make 2 with the turkey & pasta. Black olives, bell pepper 🫑, parmesan sprinkle, shredded cheese 🧀, extra virgin olive oil, and Italian seasoning! Sounds wonderful, and can be eaten hot or cold.
We had a potluck in a one of our classrooms, and it was mainly all sugar sweets 🍬, but one kids mom made yummy pesto pasta 😋. I brought popsicles. Then there was a few things left our in the break room for us staff. Earlier in the week, one classroom teacher had a little celebration with tons of pizza, chips & soda. I don't drink soda, but the pizza was yummy.
Graduation is next week. They only have Monday & Tuesday; then summer ☀️ break begins. I'm booked at a different school for Friday. I'll be back in special education & at an elementary school. I'm hoping tomorrow & Tuesday, I'll be back at last weeks school.
Anyhow, yes; I've continued to draw, color & read each day on my downtime, in classrooms. Drawing is fun, and the book I'm currently reading is quite interesting. I think I'm about halfway through.
Beautiful weather, but it keeps switching up! It was in the 60s, 70s; then in the 80s, and next week in like Thursday it'll be almost 90 degrees! Omg!
I got a really painful eye infection last week. I waited a few days to see if regular eye drops would work, but I ended up doing a phone doctor appointment. I uploaded a photo of me red eye, and swollen eyelid. So now I'm on antibiotics, which have already started working, well, and eye drops with medicine 💊 in them. Pain is gone & only little bit of swelling.
As you can see, I've continued to get many steps in , each day at that school, because I go to different classrooms throughout the day. Good exercise indeed.
Time to mediate, pray & rest a bit; then do my normal Sunday routine. Shower fresh, make snack & meal preps, organize work clothes, eat dinner, relax, and go to bed early.
Health is wealth 🙏
