45 minute teacher observation tomorrow.  It was supposed to be LAST Monday but the admin was sick so it had to get postponed.  45 minutes is a LONG time to get observed, especially considering how much can go wrong with 5 year olds in that amount of time.  Keeping their attention span for the entire time would be a miracle.  I’m nervous.  Plus I have to follow a curriculum that, for this lesson, seems boring and too short so I have no idea how this is going to go.

Plus, later on in the week I have parent/teacher conferences.  That’s right, 3 hours straight of meeting with 20+ parents, listening to their complaints and concerns, expressing MY complaints and concerns (lol)… Yikes.  Luckily each conference is only scheduled to be 10 minutes and since they’re scheduled back-to-back, parents really aren’t going to be able to go any longer than that without disrupting the whole schedule/angering other parents.  But still.  Gulp.

AND… my stomach started hurting this morning, reminiscent of what happened to me on Monday.  It has been uneasy all day, which makes me nervous.  So NOT what I need right now.

Is it Friday yet?
