So!
I have officially survived a week and a half. Survived, but not quite thrived. Not a total disaster, which is, in itself, a victory.
I love these kids. honestly. Love them to pieces. Love their teen angst and their urban toughness, their glorious ignorance and their unabashed enthusiasm for life hidden behind requisite teenaged disinterest!
I am happy to be in my job. A week ago at this time I was trying to figure out what I would do when I quit. I suppose I'll have many such highs and lows. Later today I will correct their first writing assignment and likely blanch with grief and woe.
But I am surviving.
Keep you posted on the thriving.
In other news, I just had Peapod deliver my groceries! More expensive than the bucket, but well worth the fact that I didn't have to take time out of my day to go to the fucking supermarket!
Only downside I've noticed so far is the four cartons of white mushrooms that found their way into my order, unasked for and unappreciated. I am going to give them to my sisterinlaw, as she eats mushrooms and I do not.
