Psyching up for my most difficult day at Guitar Center. Please send me some good vibes.

Today is the day I have to deal with several developmentally delayed students who do NOT have that peculiar aptitude for music that seems to come with Autism.
I have to adjust my expectations and go with a slow learning curve. Then I feel bad about being impatient.
How is your Tuesday shaping up?

It is April Fool's Day. In the break room I noticed two Krispy Kreme Donuts boxes. They were filled with veggies. Our Special Ed. Teachers are hosting a para appreciation day tomorrow. Invitations were e mailed to us all, and at least one person e mailed back asking if this was an April Fool's Joke, but it is not.

@TheHorse — make sure Kitty doesn’t hear it too and beat you to bed…or keep you up all night for spite.

Patience is a virtue I wasn't gifted with either. Good luck on that. I bet they are so cute any impatience will go away.

This is a lousy Tuesday. The Democrats lost a very important election in Florida. I hope Wisconsin goes better.

We have to be patient with slow learners. I did have such students.

I hope you had a happy happy joy joy day yesterday. My Tuesday was spent sleeping on and off. I have a catch-up day every so often since I have so much trouble sleeping.

You can do this. Maybe you will start to enjoy their successes after awhile.
