Oh What A Week!!!

I started my job this week as Cheering Coach for my daughters school. I have had two practices and have already had to deal with some pretty nasty problems. One cheerleader came to me yesterday at the school (oh, I forgot to mention that this is the week that I do the book fair all day on top of my new job) and she handed me a note from another cheerleader that said the words "You are a fucking dumbass FAT cheerleader. You are the fattest fucking cheerleader I've ever seen". Then I had an issue with one cheerleader who can't afford the sneakers so I had to go to the school and approach the "student needs program" with it. I'm ordering her sneakers anyway! Then I had a mom call me and tell me that she would like it if I could keep her daughter and another girl away form each other on the squad because they hate each other. Well, I can't do that with only 12 girls on the team now can I? It's all just a mess of shit that I'm trying to deal with and get out of the way so we can start having some fun!
The book fair is going ok. Long days in the lobby of the school and doing is alone isn't easy, but I'm managing. I'm dragging my ass on the ground but I'm managing. We are about three quarters to out goal and hopefully by Friday noon we will have reached it. The kids have been coming in by the loads, 20 or more at a time, and most of them have no clue and cough and hack all over me so I know that I'll be sick for Thankgiving...I JUST KNOW IT!
Thanksgiving...AH! Theres a thought! I can't wait for the turkey and pies. And after that I'm even getting anxious for Christmas. I MIGHT even put my Christmas tree up this weekend. I long for peaceful evenings in front of the television watching my nice lights on my tree and looking at all my ornaments and just feeling all "cozy" just like the Grinch did after he acted like a jerk!
So that's what's going on in my life at the moment. I know this isn't a very long post but I wanted to touch with all of you and let you know I'm still alive. After this week things will calm down a bit and I hope to get back to regular blogging...FUN blogging! Hope all of you are well and I will still be reading your every word. Love to all.
