Baby

First of all, I slept like a baby...finally! I didn't anticipate that I would because Jim came to bed at the same time I did. I figured he'd snore like a warthog but I tried my best to keep that from happening. First, I ensured he put on a Breathe Right strip. Then, I made sure  he put the thicker pillow under his head while cuddling with the thinner one. Finally, I had him position his head so that it was tilted up rather than tucked into his chest. And it worked like a charm. When I initially turned off my iPad (which is awesome) he made a few noises which I knew would turn into many loud snorts so I said, "Jim! Tilt your head up." He did and after that, I wasn't aware of anything until my alarm sounded at 4:20. Woot! 

I have a kid coming onto my caseload next year who the ladies I dine with have named "Stupid Baby". The story behind his name is this: The ex-husband of one of my LLs is living with this kid and his mother. The kids of my LL friend have known "Stupid Baby" for a long time and based on the stupid shit he does, they call him..."Stupid Baby". It stuck. Here's an example of why he's a Stupid Baby. On Monday night, my LL friend sent a text to our group that said, "My son is having dinner with his dad tonight and just told me that Stupid Baby got charged with aggravated menacing. Something related to a gun. Waiting for details." I mean this is awful but it also got me a little excited thinking maybe he wouldn't be coming to the high school. Nope that didn't happen. The story goes that SB was hanging at home with a friend (alone) and was aware of the loaded gun that his mother keeps under her bed. (WHAT?!) He proceeded to get the gun, wave it around and scare the shit out of his friend. His friend (maybe it's time to ditch SB as a friend) then called his mother who then called the cops. In the end, no charges were filed. I think he was just given a warning. Not sure why mom isn't charged because that's some irresponsible shit considering the mental health issues your Stupid Baby kid has. Can't wait for next year. 

Dinner tonight: I'll make some pork chops in the air fryer and probably pair it with cauliflower and rice. 

Last exam today!!! A few kids asked to take it early so they didn't have to come to school today and I aim to please! I wish I could've let them all do this but that might get me into more trouble than I need. I couldn't offer that but if they kids asked, I was happy to oblige. This means of my 11 kids in history, only 8 will be there to take the test. 

Last night after dinner I got into the hot tub and it was so lovely. It was sprinkling and felt so good. Jim didn't get in with me because he's lazy but I wasn't mad. I love that thing so much. I think it's the best thing we ever did. {knock on wood}

Okay well I'd best get a move on. Happy Thursday! Happy last day of school to me! Oh, and I'll sleep in about a 1/2 hour tomorrow so don't freak if I don't post until closer to 7:00. Ta!
