HOW many days til SUMMER????

My job is the best. 
I love the content area I teach: math is cool.
I love going back in the fall, meeting my new students, and trying new things.
May, however.... 
well.... let's just say innocent children nearly lost limbs today in my last two classes.
 
Why is it that there always seems to be that ONE class that can suck the lifeblood out of a teacher?
Or that ONE student who can continually drive you INSANE?
Do their parents remain in a state of permanent insanity?
I don't know.  Not sure if I want to know.
What I do know is that there are 17 days left of school until I am able to  deal with having my OWN children drive me crazy.   I am so anxiously counting down each one...
because right now, coming back to school tomorrow is NOT on my want list.

Thanks for reminding me there aren't many days left till summer. I was hoping to get a bit of spring before the summer came. But I am looking forward to having my kids home for Summer Fun! Hope the next 17 days go buy really fast for you.

I confess I am jealous of teachers when summer comes. But today I am not. Hang on, hang on, hang on.
