I need sympathy!!!

Original post by JennRenee

I took my class on a field trip to a farm today IN QUEENS (a 45 minute bus ride ), IN THE RAIN!!!
We were all soaking wet, my bangs were dripping into my eyes, and everyone was covered in mud. Oh yeah, and my cell phone broke while we were there.
The kids had a GREAT time, but it was the WORST day of my teaching career.

I need a hug!!

Thanks for all the . I really needed them!

Anna, almost any other trip would have been rescheduled, but this one was non-refundable and booked solid for months. It was our grade level leader's decision to go ahead with it. She wasn't very popular today.

Oh, God ... Jenn ... Green Meadows in the RAIN?!! What a nightmare! I've been there b/f & had such a wonderful time with my kids, but in this weather .... its a disaster. did you even get to see any animals? And I can only imagine how the kids were handling it.

Many hugs to you for a better day today!

OH JEN, YOU POOR THING!!! CONSIDER YOURSELF HUGGED A THOUSAND TIMES OVER!!!






Not for nothing but that was pretty stupid to come in to Queens when you guys have a million farms out there!! And I grew up in Queens, and never ONCE have I been to that farm!!! We always went out to the Island for our farm trips!!!!

I'm sorry you had such a miserable day!! I hope today is MUCH better!!!
