thoughts from six hours in parent-teacher conferences
We should have scheduled conferences. Then I wouldn't have to sit here for six hours waiting for 10 parents to come through.
I really love proofreading. How do I become a freelance proofreader?
Smart move turning my phone to vibrate. The chorus of "So Happy Together," for some reason I can't remember, is the ringtone I've set for the school. Since Mom was in the office, and I was in the gym, she called me several times to give people messages, etc. If "I can't see me loving nobody but you . . ." suddenly came blaring from my phone, well, that would be pretty embarrassing and could lead to lots of unwelcome questions!
Four hours in, and I've talked with four sets of parents. Six to go . . . I'm betting I'll only see one or two more, though.
One minute later, I've seen another set of parents.
I just got a big hug from one of my three favorite little boys, and then he "helped" me cross-stitch . . . I've missed seeing him since I switched churches!
I am, right now, missing Chuck. I only watch sporadically, but I really enjoyed last week's episode guest starring Cory. Ah, how I loved Boy Meets World!
Just chatted with another of my favorite boys in the world. I see him every week at Sparks and every once in a while at school, but I still loved seeing him!
7:38. None of my parents (save ones I've already talked to) are even in the room. Can I go home now?
Talked with my Sparks co-director. We need to make some changes regarding our leaders. We meet with them practically every week after club . . . are they at the point where they don't even hear what we're saying?
Finally put away my cross-stitch. Gym lighting is not conducive to putting a needle through small holes.
Swapped stories with one of the science teachers for a few minutes. Four minutes to go!
This post was immensely enjoyable. Your boredom was so palpable I could cut it with a knife! I vote yes, you do start scheduling parent-teacher conferences. And implement a dunk tank. That would make it much more enjoyable!
If you would teach more, you would see more parents. Were there long lines at other teachers? I was glad aunty M went so I could keep working. Have a lot to do if we are going to be albe to leave on Friday. UE

I like reading your posts. Do them more often.

Nope, not Tobes. He was too busy playing on the playground to come see me.
