Typical Timing!

This is a Big Week!
I was super excited about this week!
I had big plans for this week!

And then I got sick. It's typical timing really- I can't even count how many times I have gotten a cold Just before Christmas, or Thanksgiving, or Mother's day (I still don't think I've been fully forgiven for that one!).  If something Big is about to happen, I catch a cold! Honest to goodness, I really am not sick that often but I am really good at getting sick at the most inconvenient times!

I spent the whole weekend planning super active, fun lessons to do with my 19 rambunctious students and couldn't wait to do the activities with them!
I was going to spend the week prepping for Amanda and Bryan's visit!!!!! Even bake a cake for her --th birthday!!!
Our school open house is Wednesday night and I have to tell all the parents (who may or may not speak/understand English) all the wonderful things I plan to teach their children this year! 

I had big plans for this week! Getting a cold...not one of them!

Instead, I spent the week fighting my way through those awesome lessons (I refuse to take sick days for a stupid cold!). I went to bed last night at 5:30. Can that even be considered 'night'? My plan was to do the same Tuesday night...but instead I stayed up far too late talking with friends! Which I paid for on Wednesday! The morning was great! I had almost no troubles! But then in the middle of story time, I lost my voice. Not just lost my voice but I had a severely dry throat and honestly couldn't breathe or talk! Apparently, that's a highly effective way to get all the kids' attention! Storytime ended abruptly and turned into "color-until-Miss-Feldpausch-can-breathe-again" time...they liked it!

Before the open house my eyes and nose ran like a faucet! But thankfully, it wasn't a huge issue...that was my prayer all day long! The open house ended and I hurried home to find my friend NyQuil!

Here's to waking up healthy...hopefully!

There are 4.5 school days left in the school year. And, even though last week felt super long, this year really has zipped by. Here's m...
