Kids + May = AGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

*15 more days with the kids.
*I'm not happy to go to school any more.
*Kids think that since TAKS is over, school's over (yeah---it's not)
*I now want my "Friday Cappucino Treat" every day just to have something to look forward to (but I don't).
*I'm using copies of things in my file cabinets just to keep some kids busy (it is legit though since it's comprehension skill practice)--and hey, I made the copies to use sometime but never did!
*I'm so not motivated for the gym so I go have a mani/pedi, so at least that looks good!

And....today I realized that corporal punishment of a sort could still be used by me: I have the "Arctic Blast" of the A/C right outside my room. So....from now on if a kid clicks their tongue at me, is smart-mouthed, or anything that just doesn't float my boat....they get to stay out there for the remainder of the period. I'm okay with this---and just to prove my point to them I periodically go check on them and if they've moved away from my door b/c "Missss, it's cold"---then I force them to sit back in the cold spot.

Cruel. Mean. Don't care. AP's don't help, so this is what I'm stuck with!

Happy 15 days left of school to all!

Sidenote: I am not in a pissy mood--just REALLY want the parents of my students to learn a little respect themselves and then pass it on to their child b/c I'm a little busy during the class period to include that to 15 kids too!
