Coach.

That's right. I traded my Mrs. for Coach today.

I had already committed to substituting today, so while I was not 100% this morning, I knew if I had a "real" job, I would have gotten up and gone, so I needed to do the same here. Plus, I did not know who to call to sub for a sub. It was all too complicated.


I got to the school this morning and was handed my sub packet. Subject? Physical Education. True story. I envisioned me in a wind suit running an obstacle course, but unfortunately no such event took place.


It ended up being the best possible situation given my current state. I sat on the bench and watched high schoolers run around the gym for an hour and a half. The best part of the day was first blCheck Spellingock when half of the class was special education. Precious people.

I only had to sub two blocks, so was home by lunch. Just in time to put on my PJs and snuggle with Sophie, who gladly accepted the invitation. I am still in those PJs, by the way, with no intentions of changing until tomorrow. I am feeling better, just really exhausted, which I partially blame this medicine.

Changing the subject, Trey and his dad just left to go pick up the chair for Jones' room. I. Can't. Wait. I may rock sophie tonight. We shall see.

Last point of the day - Did anyone else watch The Duggars: Special Delivery last night? I'm not gonna lie, I love those Duggars. Yes, they have 19 kids. Yes, I think that is insane. But they are good parents. The kids are well behaved, well-spoken, and actually really cute. (sans some questionable wardrobe choices). And I don't see sweet Jim Bob and Michelle turning into another John and Kate. So I watch. And I love. And last night I cried. Sweet Josie. Did you?

I LOVE hearing about your school experiences. It really makes me miss it.

I can't agree with you about the Duggers. I'm with LT. They kind of gross me out...like a strange science experiment. To each their own.

I LOVE this show. I love Jim Bob and Michelle. I think she needs to stop having babies but I love them. And yes, I cried watching little Josie being born. Just like Jim Bob or someone said - she is beautifully, perfectly made.

I can just picture you as Sue Sylvester teaching gym. You do watch Glee, don't you?!
