I should be working...

Okay, so I am working, sort of... my class is working I am sitting at my desk, reading blogs. I go off track in 2 1/2 days and I am not in the mood to read with groups. Plus I haven't gotten new books for my group. I should read with groups it is the most important part of the morning but... I hate it. Overall, I am bored. I am sick of the same routine. Get up, go to work (which is the same most days), drive home, get dinner, watch TV, grade papers, sleep. I am bored with my same old clothes, I am bored with my apartment. I tell my one of my students everyday that life is not Disney Land. If it was, we would get bored with Disney Land too. Right now though I would like a little Disney Land. Also, when I get bored, I start to look ahead and plan ahead which makes me antsy. I start planning for next school year instead of for what we are doing tomorrow. I start getting antsy for going back to school (someday it will happen).
Have you ever noticed that when you're bored or stuck in day to day routine it seems like everyone around you is doing great things and moving forward. While this is probably not true, that is what it seems like.

I know exactly what you mean. That's how I feel about staying home with two really little kids. I wish I was in your position some days...

I know what you mean. This time of year you and your kids are bored so you have to mix it up, which unfortunately takes energy and motivation. On a different note, going back to school is attractive, but not lucrative at this point. It will come. Or you could play principal and maybe decide it's too much work!

Ilive for the weekends when things get changed up a bit. Maybe going off track will help you out.
