Can I tell you how much I'm glad it's the weekend??

Yeah!! I am so glad it's Friday and I get two days off. Don't get me wrong, I am enjoying my job and actually like going in everyday, but who doesn't like the weekend? Plus, this week has been so crazy with the testing I mentioned and being sick and the aide being out and all that, it's a relief to be home. Plus, I don't see much of Mason during the week, so it's so nice to be home with him.

Speaking of work, I like the new aide a lot. Although she's still very much involved with helping our Spanish speaker, she's so very nice and helpful when asked to do something. She even took work home for the weekend, by choice!! Yeah, I used to do it every single night and pretty much every weekend when I was teaching all by myself, but as an aide I say no way am I taking anything home. I don't get paid enough nor do I feel it's my job. I do my job from 7:30-4 and I do it well, but when 4 comes, I'm out of there. I don't know if that's right, but that's my theory. I'm just an aide, so I'm a helper, not the one who should be bearing most of the load. Plus with having an 8 month old at home, I don't want to spend the time I do have with him grading papers. No thank you.

I'm meeting a friend and her 5 month old daughter Riley (the little girl who is Mason's future prom date) for lunch tomorrow, which I'm looking forward to. Should be a good weekend...
