How luck you are to have an aide. This is my first year without one. When I was in public education I had 5 aides -- maybe next year I will get one. In this school we also do internal substitutions so I volunteered this morning to take a buddy's class last period - gave me a good time to read as it was our LAP period (study hall). I had to finish a new book on the Latter-day Saints for a review in Catholic Library World. Must be the weather - I am feeling empty-headed today too.
