Vacation

At 7pm I left the office. It was a long day made even longer with a situation with one of our pre-kindergarten students not being picked up from the bus and no one answering when we tried to call them. It was really upsetting and I'm not sure we have the answers yet as to why this happened. Thankfully his aunt finally came. We will have to figure out what happened next week when we meet with his parents.

So now I am on vacation. I'm supposed to be relaxing, but all I can think about are the things I need to do - the emails that need sent, the plans that need finished, the copies that need to be made. It's actually really annoying that my mind is going like this. Perhaps part of the reason is that I got really useful feedback during my two by two conversation with my host principal today. I want to get to work.

My goal, however, is to not think about work until Friday at the earliest. Tomorrow I need to go buy the rest of the ingredients for Thanksgiving, prep some of the components and spend some time with Quin. Then Thursday we are going to enjoy a nice day together as a family. I have got to get out of work mode ASAP in order to enjoy this time together.
