Subscribe11:00 AM and I'm still in bed waiting for my excuse to reply. I was supposed to go back to work today and I didn't feel like it. I texted two people to set up a meet but it didn't happen. 11:30 and I'm in the shower.
I didn't want to be late on my first day back to work after a long holiday. I had to be in school at noon. Out the door at 11:50, the short walk to school should take me 10 minutes. A quick trip to Circle K and after munching on the way, I arrived at 12:15 PM.
"Why are you here? Didn't you file your leave for until tomorrow?" the principal said as soon as I entered the office.
I smiled but no words can describe the self-induced brain slam inside of me. The teacher is in and in too early. Damn it.
I made the most of the afternoon doing what they call "the other stuff teachers have to do"--prepping the classroom and making it beautiful.
Somehow, I was in the mood to work today so I got to it without grunts. By 4:00 PM I already had the Birthdays board and the Cleaners board done.
Lesson learned and a word to the wise, it takes but a minute to recall your leave schedule.
