So things started looking up when the client looking at my house said he knew me…and Baby (this via my landlord). It was my friend’s ex-husband! While that would be a little too close to home, it would work out well for me. Unfortunately, he is not going to buy the property. 😦

However, the realtor is not contacting me about showings. We had that conversation two weeks ago about how I work late evening hours and she must call me 48 hours in advance to arrange a showing. Instead what she is doing is sneaking over in the late afternoons and taping a “notice” on my back door. Now she is moving the 4:00 appointments to 10 and 11 in the morning. She’s in for a rude awakening tomorrow. She is breaking the law and she knows it and thinks she can just do it. Try explaining that to a police officer.

It seems like the school days are flying by! It’s hard to believe it’s been another week already. I got our campus UIL sign ups up this week and I had another coach back out the final day coaches must be in place. She was pulling an excuse out of nowhere, so now I have 14 unfilled coaching spots. Coaches that have coached for years all of a sudden refused to coach this year. It annoyed me a bit, but I’ll do with what I have. On Thursday my counterpart at our sister MS and I went to the official meeting with all of our competitors. They never once introduced themselves or even asked who I was. They had no fucking clue who I was or what school I was from! Halfway through the meeting, the only male at the table asked my counterpart where our former coordinator was, if she was still with the district. And my friend looked down the table at me and I simply said, “I am the new Shelly” and STILL no introductions! It was bizarre.

My yearbook kids are taking off and doing well with photographing their events. Our only problem is we still have no technology, so our memory cards are filling up! I also was assigned a new role on my campus that I just found out about on Friday. So…even more work!

I have a wireless mouse at home and at school. I cannot do the laptop mouse pads. It slows me down significantly. Both have been on the fritz and my one at home officially died today. (Yes, replaced batteries.) So I go out to the store, find two at a price point I’m OK with and that aren’t plain Janes, and I come back home to get cracking on my laptop…and the old one that “died” is magically working again! Ayyy carumba!

~ Reading Now~

I read a few more pages of Regarding Anna this week, but not nearly enough. I was at school or on my way home until 8 or later every evening.
