The proofreading corrections came in for my framing text, so my first task for the day was fixing the piece and turning it over so that the final Kits can be created and put in the warehouse. Something caused a minor delay so it won’t make it to the online store by the end of the month, but it should be there next week.

We touched base on several lesson plans and on some PDFs I need to make for the NCTE store. Lisa, Sharon, and I went on a field trip to Michael’s to look for a plastic box for another product we’re working on. It was also an excuse to go through the Wendy’s drive-thru for lunch. I managed to eat chicken strips with honey mustard with relatively little acid problems :)

I spent quality time decorating my cute little Circa notebook with stickers. When I had my update with Sharon, she wanted to know where I got my notebook cuz she liked it too. Maybe I’ll start a new fad at NCTE. What I like the most about this silly notebook is that it’s easy to be a perfectionist. I never have to start over. My biggest decision is whether to write on the back of the sheet if it’s a different topic.

My back is still ouchy, and my brain is still mushy. I’m taking a sick day tomorrow so I can rest for three full days before I have to go back to work. I hope it helps. I have ReadWriteThink calendar and lesson plans to do while I’m sitting here at home, so it’s not like I plan to sleep the WHOLE day. Then again, maybe I will. It’s not my fault that the drugs make me sleepy. If I have to sleep all day, I’ll just have to gather my courage and surrender to the bed.
