Time's flying when you're having fun

...or when you aren't. No, really. Work days flow into each other, I'm still not completely healthy - to put it mildly - and I'm deadly tired all the time. I haven't done anything of real importance since last week, just trying to survive one day after another... not always an easy task. The flu is going around, about 8 or so colleagues are on sick leave (today I had to go down to one of the 1st grade classes because the lower primary section practically died out), and on Saturday we have that godforsaken carnival ball of ours, which means we'll have to serve the guests from 6 pm to 1 am, including a performance with the choir and to collecting the dirty dishes. Had I know this, I'd have gone into entertainment or gastronomy, not into education.

Supposed that we survive the ball, I'll start with the 5th grade kids' Easter crafting next week. We're going to make felt Easter eggs, I hope they'll like it. We might even bake some Easter cookies, if we can handle the logistics. I just hope the chest cramps will cease, soon; it's not a nice feeling.
