I totally played hooky today

Ever wake up and just decide you don't want to got to work today? well thats waht I did today. I feel a little guily but I only took 1 day off so far this year and I really wanted to sleep late and play on LIweddings all day.

Plus I just talked to my partner and she said the kids are out of control today, sometimes teaching special ed I need a day or I will get burnt out and this is only my 6th year teaching, what am I gonna do when I am 50

Everyone needs to do that, it's a mental health day I see one in my future, the day I have to go in for my sample CP. I'm not wasting my precious vacation days on that!

Don't feel bad it's called a mental health day!!! Everyone needs one once in a while! You have only taken one day off all year??? You DEF needed this day then! And the year is almost over!!!!

i know how you feel. Actually it isn't my 'special friends' that are wired right now. Its the ones that are usually calm that are bouncing off the walls. I finally convinced two of the special ed. parents that they needed to up medicine dosages.....viola its been so nice

I often need a mental health day, but planning for the substitute is usually more work than if I just go in and teach! But I definitely need one. Sigh.....2 more days to vacation!!!
