Ok folks, I agree, we've all said about all we can - let's get back on topic.
How about this for a manly "what are you doing" post:
Getting a Tommy John candle ready to send for a benefit auction.
Getting our #1 seller Mermaid Cove ready for our cross-promotion of "The Little Mermaid" show in town.
Preparing labels for some new candle launch, and an ad for a business event where we (Shining Sol Candle Company) are nominated for Emerging Business of the Year. Pretty cool, right?!
Day four of being sick. Taking a cabinet full of shit trying to fight it off but will have to go see the doctor if I'm not better in a day or so. Still kinda shook up over getting pneumonia a couple of years ago.
I've previously had trouble with sinus infections not going away, so now the first thing I do is boil crushed garlic for a few mins and then sniff the steam. Seems to help flus as well given the fever I beat last time.
Booked my air bnb for California last night. I was supposed to look up places and make an Itinerary but I spent the entire day grading because I’ve been out of it. I’ve caught up mostly, though. Did some lessons and I made my midwinter recess packets. It’s 2 am now, so naturally a perfect time for a facial and a beer.
Sunday. Listening to Jóhann Jóhannsson, there's some ground beef left in the fridge, gonnu make some pasta with that.
Gonnu send my CV to one company today and see what comes out of that. I thought about this one for a while before actually doing it. Might be nothing, still.
I'm supposed to be in geometry but I got out to review for a quiz with a teacher who isn't here, so instead I am just sitting in a room with another kid who's taking the quiz.
Had an absolutely awful lesson with my worst behaved group to end the day. They are just rude and obnoxious. For the first time ever I wanted to just leave part way through the lesson and leave them to it. They are a small class but over half of them have extreme behavioural issues. And ruin the learning for the few nice ones in there. I want to get through to them how selfish it is for them to be ruining the learning of the students that want to learn. They’re an extremely low ability group, which compounds the issue. They find maths hard, so they’d rather not try than get it wrong. I’m at the point where I dread teaching them. It’s so frustrating.
