Weight Loss for the Week: 0lbs
I'm not evenly remotely surprised I didn't lose this week. It was a long week. It was a stressful week. And I'm afraid it may be the kind of week I have to repeat a few more times. It's job related, it's probably going to be okay, but, nonetheless, prayers are appreciated.
This kind of stress just completely screws with my stomach. I will go from being starving, to being sick to my stomach one day. The next day, I won't be able to eat until very late in the night. It's not healthy, it makes me feel gross, and it just adds to my anxiety.
Okay, onto other topics. The school year is winding down which means I'm ending out my units with my kids and working on getting them ready for exams. My 8th graders are almost done with TKAM. My 9th graders just finished Night- they even wrote letters to Elie Wiesel which I will be mailing out tomorrow. The letters are so sweet, I was tearing up while I read them. My 10th graders are dabbling in North American literature (and I may be incorporating some Anthro and AES topics because I think they should start those discussions earlier rather than later). And my dear ACT kids will do some general review the last few days.
This weekend was pretty nice. We had our last dance of the school year Friday night. The kids seemed to have a good time and even taught me a few new dance moves, lol! Saturday, I slept in because, quite frankly, I needed to do so. I ran some errands with my mom. Then, I went out with Kerry to a few places on Madison where we were hit on by some rather funny characters. We actually laughed one of the guys right out of the bar. We're nice like that.
Today, I've finished up my lessons, graded the never-ending pile of quizzes/tests/papers, and rested up some more. We celebrated Mother's Day at Memaw's and had a really nice time. We even hung up some more of her pictures so there's really only her mirror left.
Now, back to the grading.
