Just Getting Worse

So my day yesterday was spent taking screen shots of the public post that Luna made on a nearby neighborhood Facebook page disparaging my reputation. Eventually she even put my name in print which sent me over the edge. Additionally, one person made a comment threatening violence. That was ironic as her post started with: "Praying for you" and then went on to say people like me sometimes get mugged. Hmm...that's very Christian of you! A couple other school personnel were also mentioned and our school lawyers are now involved. They are meeting with the prosecutors tomorrow about charges that will be filed (not just for what she's doing to me but other things in regard to her behavior) including slander. 

I also went to the teacher who didn't do his job (telling the student what he could expect in his classes in terms of earbuds) which started this whole FB ball rolling. I told him how upset I was and angry that because of his nonaction (following a directive by the administration) of following through on what was discussed at Monday's meeting he set me up for failure. His reaction and response was nothing. I was expecting him to own up to it (and by the way, he still hasn't had the discussion with the student but at this point, I don't expect the student in my class) and apologize but I got nothing.  He gave me some lame excuses and showed an obvious disregard for me as his colleague. He stood there absolutely steadfast that he was NOT going to say sorry. What an asshole. I tell my kids in class all the time that the best quality in a person is his or her ability to say sorry and admit their mistakes. How disappointing. 

Today, I'm going to try my best to have a good attitude and not let this thing steer my day. I'm not going to let this get me down. I'm hoping that the administration who says they have my back, does indeed have it. I hope they don't let me down (as they have done many times before) and follow through on the actions they say they are going to take. And that's all I'll say for now. 

Dinner tonight: Thai pork chops with a veggie and maybe some rice. Dinner last night was supposed to be sesame chicken but it sort of turned into a chicken stir fry. It was good. 

Things at school - other then the above - have been a bit of a shit storm. Monday we had Google go down and yesterday our wifi was all effed up. For the latter half of the day, no one could zoom with kids. Hopefully things are back up and running today. 

And that's all I've got. Happy Thursday! Stay healthy, masked and away from others. Later!
