Thoughts from a Conundrum

an enigma wrapped in a riddle dressed in a conundrum

Oi Vai

What an incredibly crazy week! I've been working at the same school (North Park Wilson) for 11 days now, and am done there tomorrow. I know it's only been 11 days but now i've become attatched to the kids and will really miss it. The class i've been in needs all the extra help they can get. It's just constant circus-i tell ya. This morning one girl showed up after losing her meds on the way and well-yikes. Another guy could very well have not taken his as well. The afternoon started with a sweet little guy hitting someone, then ignoring myself and the other supervising teacher, at which point he ran. When he was running the wrong way i caught him and then held so he wouldn't run away. And then i felt little teeth on my hand. You'd think getting bit would be the end-ha. Later, i made a kid cry because i wouldn't tell him a math answer. When the kids went to gym(and technically i should have gone too) the teacher said the girl i'm hired to watch would be fine and that i could(haha could) stay back-hop on a ladder(stupid heights) and try to reach accross a giant chasm to put papers on the wall. So, the girl who was 'fine' didn't come back from gym, and had a mini breakdown. So, off to the library to read for awhile. Then somone went home early-he looked like he was about to puke on me...that would have been fun.

After work, i went to yet another transmission place, after the scary place yesterday. And YEAH! I'm taking it in on monday. It's even $100 cheaper then i was expecting-well at least they're quite sure it is.

Basically, i'm getting run down from constant activity. i haven't had a day where i didn't have to run around after work to accomplish various tasks, and i never seem to catch up. It' like the never ending 'to do' list haunts my brain at nite.

One last thing: Einer and Girlesa are the missionary couple who are supposed to come for our missions conference. I know them and came to really appreciate both of them when i went to Panama. GLITCH: Their visa's were turned down-so now i call you to PRAY for them and miracles. : )
