The second half of my 50% Spring Break starts tomorrow

I'm only working one job this week, yay! Well, at this job (the SPED paraprofessional job) I work for 3.5 hours as my regular "set" job, and I often have the option of substituting for a para job at another school (or my own location if need be) so it's technically a separate job. So if you want to be technical about it, I work 3 jobs. Whew! It can be tiring, but I'm so thankful to be able to work.

My jobs are wonderful and I love helping children. My goal is to eventually become a special education teacher, although I need to pass some exams first, starting with the CBEST, which I've heard is pretty easy. Either way, I ordered some books on Amazon that will help me prepare for the exam so I can make a high enough score on all parts of it.

I ordered the cats a kitty cat condo and it arrived on Saturday. My cats LOVE it. I bought it on Amazon as well.

Yay! Catnip! Now we can act like crackheads!

Have a Happy Easter and a great week, y'all!

Happy April!

I started my month off Wednesday quite hilariously. At the Chinese school I work at, I gave my students a "pop quiz" that consisted of questions from Matt's physics qualifying exams for his Ph.D. My kids are in elementary school and their reactions were.so.freaking.funny. Oh my gosh, it was one of the most hilarious moments of my life. Then I have them Oreos with toothpaste filling. One boy took a bite and then spit it out, lol. The other kids caught on after they saw him do it.

Sadly, I don't have one full spring break week. Instead, I have two 50% spring break weeks, since I work for two different school districts. This week, I only had to go to the Chinese school job. Next week, I'll only have to go to my special education job.

Have a great weekend!
