The One Eyed Cat...

For those of  you, who have sat in waiting, to see how my day went...wait no more. I am typing this, therefore I SURVIVED!! And, if you are wondering about my hair and shoes, well, my shoes matched, and I actually fixed my hair, so I would have considered today a success...UNTIL-- you know, today was a really good day. My students were good excellent. I got up on time, I got everything accomplished that should have been, I got to school on time, and I even remembered how to teach. The day was perfect, UNTIL... On Monday's my students go out to recess with another class, and as they are gone, I usually take that time to make my copies, check my box, use the restroom, etc...We go to recess around 1:15 each day, so keep in mind, I had been gallivanting around Skyland, with a big ole smile on my face, talking to everyone I know, just excited about being back in a routine, happy to see everyone. Do you get the picture??? SO, at 1:30,  I took myself to the restroom. As I was washing my hands (at 1:30 in the afternoon--AFTER I had been happily walking around since 7:00) I realized, that I only had eyeliner on one eye! ONE EYE!! I don't wear my eyeliner thick, but you can tell it's there. So, to look in the mirror, and see this horrific accident....I didn't know how to handle it. I didn't know if I wanted to laugh or cry, send out a bulk email to let EVERYONE, I had come into contact with, know, that I am NOT crazy (well....) but I somehow got sidetracked this morning, and I am very much aware that I only have eyeliner on ONE eye. (OK, now I am laughing) So, I stood and stared and wondered how I could fix it....if I attempt to take the eyeliner off of my one eye, then I risked smearing mascara all down my face. So, I wondered if I could find a black pen, and make the other eye look the same?! Don't worry, I didn't do either...I just continued on the rest of my day, like a one eyed cat. I know it's funny, so laugh.... :) It's even funnier, if you could have seen me greeting everyone--like I am running for president, just as happy as could be. I'm sure they were all wondering what in the world, I had put in my coke this morning for me to; 1-be so dang happy to be back and 2- to forget one eye while applying my eyeliner! I can only hope that nobody except me realized what I had done. And, to think that I had felt so good about how everything had gone this morning, how easy it was to get up and get ready, how well Owen did this morning, how well my students were acting, I mean it was a great day, UNTIL! :) I can't help but think, ONLY me! 


And no, I didn't rush home after school to fix it....I continued on. I picked up Owen, went to Target, and even stood in line at Starbucks. I just acted as normal as possible...tomorrow, I will be careful when applying my  makeup, and hope that I remember underwear, I would hate to have to blog about forgetting that!
