Make a List
Well, the governor announced North Carolina's "Back to School" option, and my school district's decision of how we'll implement it has been announced.
Doug and I were talking about it last night, and he said something about "Well, in 3 weeks when you have to go back to school . . . " WAIT. HOLD THE PHONE. 3 weeks?!!!! That's like 20 ish days. Uhhhhh . . . . I know some of y'all are freaking out about what you're going to teach, or how it's going to look, or like real stuff- but I'm over here thinking:
1. How am I ever going to get out the door in a reasonable amount of time? I don't remember how to do that skill. For 5 months I have had excessively slow mornings. (Even when it was still school back in April and May- I'd just wash my face and appear like I was ready and professional. I was like a mullet. Business on top- pajamas on the bottom) See my morning wake up routine takes like 3 hours now. It involves lots of sitting around, and then drinking coffee. I changed my hair fixing method that takes longer. I walk the dog. Getting out of the door in less than 3 hours is pretty unlikely at this point. I can't wake up at 3am to start that routine.
2. What am I going to wear? I've spent 5 months baking and eating my feelings. I am pretty sure my pants don't fit. Although I don't know because I only wear leggings, all day- every day.
3. I had planned to learn how to put eye make up on. You know, since I have to wear a mask, at least my eye make up will be on point. I still only know how to effectively put on mascara.
4. I was going to paint my downstairs: dining room, living room, entryway, laundry room, and hallways. I don't think I have time to get that done now. Heck- I'm lucky if I get those rooms dusted in the next 20ish days.
I guess I better make a list of all the things I want/need to get done and get focused. Not get on TikTok. That would probably be a more effective use of my time. Possibly. Most likely.
