Still here?

Hello, blog. How are you? Haven't seen you much lately as I'm usually pretty busy this time of year. Sorry for neglecting you here in the recent past. I promise to do better. It's been over a week since I really blogged something substantial, and what a difference a week makes. This time last week I was feeling good about the world, my job, myself, having started last Monday off by turning in a student's wallet that I found in the parking lot of my daughter's school. Surely karma would return the favor. This Monday started off with my daughter having a serious temper tantrum meltdown which probably will cost her her first grade field trip to the aquarium next week. Our pregnant front desk person left before 9 this morning because she wasn't feeling well and probably scared herself into thinking something was wrong with the baby. And finally, I ran over and killed a squirrel on the way to work this morning. Fuck! And it's still early in the day! This is one of those days where you wished life had a reset button and you could just start it over again. Tell me why I don't like Mondays . . . .
