It Is What It Is . . .

This has been the longest week of my life . . . or at least it feels like it.  After informing my principal that I was volunteering to be the surplus teacher, everything just kind of went into hyper-speed.  She informed the entire 5th grade in a meeting on Friday afternoon last week.  The faculty was informed shortly after school that same day.  On Monday morning, she came to my room and told me what school I was going to--and proceeded to tell me that they wanted me to start on Tuesday.  (Which, by the way, was totally false . . . I think she just wanted me out as soon as possible.)  I divided my students amongst the other three teachers and started packing up all the hud.  By Wednesday, one week to the day of making the decision to leave, I had everything out of the school . . . and in the garage at home.  Yep, I don't have a classroom at the moment.  I am apparently getting a relo and it hasn't arrived yet.  It probably won't arrive for at least 3 weeks--probably closer to 4 according to my new principal.  And so, welcome to my new classroom . . . . may it not stay this way for too much longer!!
