Sonny did....he he Sonny(as in Georgia's Governor Sonny Perdue) did finally reward us teachers in the great state of Georgia with the $100 gift card and smaller class size. However, the downside is that I have still had to spend like $50 or more of my own money. Also, we can only use it during our tax free weekend. Let me tell you....the stores and roads are crazy!!! Not only are all the teachers out using the gift cards but people are out taking advantage of the tax free holiday. SHEESH! You can only imagine the traffic...and have I told you how my driving isn't quite the best in the world? LOL I am glad to have gotten a chance to use my gift card this morning so it wasn't as bad as it will be this weekend. I am going to post pics sometime this weekend of my classroom all completed.:)
ON ANOTHER TOPIC...I heard on some news somewhere the other day that the heat wave affecting us is not only causing heatstrokes and deaths, but also for us to be more irritable (hot weather=uncomfortable=more irritable...makes some sense...). I have been a little more irritable this week....drivers and things like that getting more on my nerves it seems, and the other day I got upset over something stupid. I placed an order to out local school supply company and when my order came in 1 thing was backordered. Guess what it was? CRAYONS!!!!!! Stinkin' crayons people! What kind of school supply store doesn't have tons of crayons in stock? Totally stupid to get as upset as I got...I can get crayons for 10cents a box at Target.
Anyway, so what is your opinion on this theory of the heat making us more irritable? Yay or nay?
I hope that everyone has a great weekend!  ¶ Thursday, August 03, 2006
