UGHHH It’s MONDAY!…..

 

Have I told you all, how much I love MY weekends! Love not being on any type of schedule.  Love being able to do anything I want, when I want, and to not have to wake up to an alarm clock!  Why is it, when I wake up on Saturday or Sunday at 5am, I’m AOK with it, but come Monday morning, I DREAD it and feel like I’ve been hit with a bus?  I don’t have to leave my house at the but ass crack of dawn just to make it to work on time (I commute almost 45 minutes 1 way).  I don’t have to rush at 4pm to leave my first job to get to my second job, by 5:30pm.   The weekdays are a blur…it seems like all I do is RUSH, RUSH, RUSH! I hate it.  I love my job..but I hate it’s location! I would never move closer, simply because I don’t like the areas that are closer to it and would never live there.   Yes, I know it is my decision, when I agreed to the job.  But seriously, it’s getting OLD…or is it me that’s getting OLD?  I’m hoping that in August, I will actually be in an Administration Role, yup, scary, but am hoping I will be running the school!  If this happens, I have decided that I would quit my 2nd job…if I don’t quit then I will just cut back my hours..tremendously…although right now I truly don’t work too many extra hours there.  It is just the point…if I leave work (1st job) at even a second later than 4pm..I feel so rushed…I HATE this feeling! 

So now, as I sit watching (or should I say, listening) to the news, they are talking SNOW…like 1 to 2 inches per hour SNOW! UGH..I so can’t wait for the drive home!  On crappy days like this (crappy weather) there are days it takes me almost 1 hour if not more, to either make it to work or make it home.  For instance, the other morning (I think Friday) just because it was SO cold out (-13 below zero) I think people thought the roads were bad.  Like being cold gave them permission to drive 2 miles an hour! COME ON ALREADY!  It’s COLD, but the roads are FINE!  Seriously, I have it timed, as to if I’m running super late..depending on the cars, and buses I see everyday!  Let me tell you, running late I was!! Oh well…I blamed it on the idiots on the road (but failed to mention, my lack of planning and leaving my house a little late). 

One of the ”upsides” of being a teacher are the snow days!!  But have I told you, I DON”T GET THEM!!! I’m expected to be at work NO MATTER what!! I know, I know most of you are saying, so what I gotta be at work no matter what as well. But do you know how envious I am, when I see every single school district’s name at the bottom of the TV screen saying closed?  I’m praying one of these days…someone will surprise me and my facility name will appear..YEAH HAPPY PRAYING!!  Hmm maybe, when I’m boss, I can work on this coming true!!  We are not like a regular school, in terms of hours and days.  Seeing how our kids live there, no snow days, and our days consists of school 8am-4pm. This kills me…especially after working in the public school system for a couple years and getting used to the hours!  OH well, it’s a good job, I like it, so why am I complaining? Hmm GOOD QUESTION!! Guess the answer is, CAUSE I CAN!!  

So here’s to praying the WEEK FLIES by…COME ON SATURDAY!!
