It's 2:04 am and I'm wide awake. I'd rather be sleeping; my body wants me to be sleeping, but my brain simply will not shut off! I've been up a time or two already giving Joel a dose of medicine for his horrible cough-and now fever-and there I was again: lying in bed THINKING! For those out there who have nothing better to do than read my pathetic musings, wanna take a trip through my thinking...see what connections all those synaps are making?
My poor baby, he's miserable with that cough! The medicine should be kicking in by now...I wonder how I should cook the ham for breakfast tomorrow... (Joel missed preschool today, and they were going to try green eggs and ham as part of their week-long unit on Dr. Seuss. I told him we'd have green eggs and ham for b-fast Saturday)......well, 1 pioneer program down; 2 more to go Tuesday...I wonder why that microphone died on us today...will I be able to get to school this weekend to reset levels and fix the problems? (I think as I hear the blowing snow outside).....I should have brought the 3rd graders' poi balls home to braid so they can dance with them next week...I hope the weather breaks enough for me to paint/prime their didjeridoos so they can get them painted and learn how to play them in time for the World's Fair!...I need to pluck flower blooms for the leis, make more tiki statues, and figure out how to craft a large Easter Island head...Shoot! I forgot to email the teachers who are donating paper products!....I wonder if I nudge him with my foot, he'll stop snoring (he really doesn't do it that often :0)......I can't believe I had to sit in meetings all afternoon (about reading comprehension strategies) rather than get my sub plans done for Monday, yet another thing to try to get done this weekend....I wonder what jury selection will be like...I doubt if I can take scissors to try to get some World's Fair cutting done....probably just a list-making notepad and my latest paperback...maybe I should get up and have some Sweet Dreams tea....I'm probably going to be spending my personal day next week buying the rest of my supplies for the World's Fair......I wish I could go on a shopping spree (FOR ME!) w/ the gift cards in my wallet....I think I forgot to spray the sombreros with lice spray-better do that tomorrow....what should I have my 3rd graders do with the sub Monday?.............
I'd better stop there before one of you in cyberspace reports me with "mental concerns". I think I'd be a good candidate for Ambien (if I believed in using that sort of thing). Until then, I'm going to sip my tea and go to the livingroom to work on my lists (it's how I get through all this each year) until sleep overcomes me. Sweet Dreams...
