Topics on My Mind

The week was a bit chaotic. First of all, one of the teachers in our department has been re-assigned to a different grade level due to an illness. As for myself, I don't agree with the reassignment but I don't know every detail of the situation. However, I do know that if I were the person in question and I had seen all of my belongings from my room in the hallway, I would have blown a fuse! But, then again, I do hope that that person in question has been informed of the decision that was made.

I don't agree with doing things like that. I saw that happen with my grandmother when she went on a trip with some relatives. When she came back home, her belongings had been taken (stolen is the best word) by people she knew and that caused her to get ill.They said it was Dementia/Alzheimer's. I say that it was the traumatic experience of having everything snatched away from her that did it. No one should EVER go through something as horrible as that! Besides, we all die without our possessions.

I saw someone at the store this afternoon, and she mentioned my biological father. Now, one thing that gets me in a mood is any mention of that man. I do not like myself when I react to the conversation. So, I've caught myself many times making faces when people mention him to me.EXPERIMENT 626 Pictures, Images and Photos I don't like him. I don't want anything to do with him. He's not part of my life and no longer do I wish him to be. End of story. Yet, it's an ongoing battle. I guess that is one of the drawbacks of living in a small town.

Anyhow, today was a day full of so much, and I am thrilled to be home. I need to relax a bit, but I really REALLY need to get some paperwork done. So that's going to take precedence over relaxation. But, once I've gotten my papers completed, then I'm going to sneak in a few chapters of the book I'm currently reading. It's called "The Secret Life of Bees" by Sue Monk Kidd. So far, I am enjoying it!
