What’s Up With Me

I feel so out of touch with the world and my online friends. I’ve worked 42 overtime hours in the last 2 weeks and I am weary.

I wouldn’t need to work so long, but there are so many interruptions during regular working hours that I cannot get all these new students entered into the computer! (I work in a large elementary school as registrar/attendance clerk.) I get sooo much accomplished in the quiet of my hot office. (No air conditioning after hours!)

And we live in Texas, where the heat is unbearable at times!

So, don’t think I’m ignoring you. I’m just too tired to do much but fall into bed at the end of the day. I miss you guys!

  1. We're here for you, Sherrinda. We miss you, but we understand. I'm back at work as well, so my time is limited as well, but not near as much as it will be in a few months.

    Hang in there.

  3. You'll feel much better in a few months, when you're rested and the hoopla is over with. Until then, take care of yourself.

  4. Sherrinda, I'm sorry to hear you're plate is overflowing these days. I hope you're able to do some things to make this experience bearable. Perhaps a portable fan, some iced sweet tea and nice music playing would help.

    I appreciate all you're doing to make things run smoothly for the school. I'm sure the students don't know how much you're doing for them, but as a teacher's wife I understand. Without such support behind the scenes, their jobs are tougher. So, here's a big THANK You from me.

  7. We miss you too! You have a job that sounds like it has some rush times. I hope you get to have a popsicle or two to cool off after your hard work.

  10. Hi Sherrinda –

    No A/C? Ack. We're having a scorching day today. I try to keep the air off as much as possible, but it was on full blast this afternoon.

    Hope you're drinking lots of water and getting caught up with your work.

    Blessings,
    Susan 🙂
