is your daddy home, did he go and leave you all alone?

Been a couple days. I spent Monday trying to figure out how I'm going to hold to book fairs simultaneously at two schools. After swearing I wouldn't do it. The Feb book fairs are different weeks, one right after the other. Not AS bad.

If I can get C, my faithful and wonderful volunteer to cover the nighttime part of bookfair at school A, I can be at school B for that. During the day, I'd have to have parent volunteers. I'm going to have to talk to my admins--the ONLY way this will work is if I can have the freedom to go to each school as need be. I think I can get away with one day less at School B (less kids). Not looking forward to it, but we'll see. I hate book fairs with the passion of a 1000 burning suns. My rep is cunt, though I have to pretend like she isn't. (Yeah, how many customer service reps have YOU had to apologise to--and really, I wasn't that mean or rude. *sigh*)

Not sure if I've got it all figured out, but am close, I think.

Today I had an appt with the eye specialist--I have type 2 diabetes and am now insulin dependant. End of February I had DKA, ended up in ICU for a few days, about a week in the hospital overall. Anyways, I normally see Dr. T. once a year, but today he found the first signs of diabetic retinopathy in my eyes ever but he said it's very small but it is ia change, so I have to see him in 9 months. Which would be June, but I asked the receptionist if I could book in early July so I'd be out of school. And I got a morning appt.

I had to leave work early; they didn't get one of my fave five as my sub, but a woman who used to sub for me before I got my current volunteer, C. I got tired of getting this other woman as they'd always pull her as an EA sub. *sigh*

Other than that, not a lot going on. PD and I are going to try and coordinate some of our inservice days so I can help her at her elem and she can help me at school B. (She's never done elem before...) I asked PHP II and she's okay with me going to school B on inservice days--I told her I'd check with her before each as there may be some for school A I need to attend.

Had SAC (School advisory council) meeting tonight which went til 8:30....been a long day and I should really go to bed soon, I guess...
