Monday, I just felt awful, but I am glad I was able to be productive in some ways. I was sleepy this morning and went back to sleep for five more minutes, which I rarely do, but I am excited despite everything. This is the last Friday with students for the school year! Next week is going to be crazy, unpredictable, and hectic, but it will also go by fast. Two out of the four days will be completely different, with a field trip and 8th-grade promotion, and the other two days will also be different, just being the last week.
