Ever wonder why I don't email all day? Well folks here's my dirty secret. I know I complain a lot about my schedule being hellish but it's really not that bad (except for day 4 where I go almost straight from noon to 4). So right now today, it's Day 2 and I am in the middle of the biggest prep time I have all week: one whole hour attached to my lunch of 30 minutes! I figure that I'm justified for taking this time for myslef since I came in early and wrote a couple of lesson plans and then found out these classes were behind a lesson due to programs before xmas time. So, basically I came in early for no reason. On the bright side, I'm being entertained by emails from Marie and her...um...coworker (wink wink).
Now, who can tell me what to do at bell tonight? Monday night I finally got an email from the Pastor at my church saying that I was only allowed to spend $300 on music. I had quoted him $700 for the rest of the year. So I placed my meager order for 2 songs for each of the choirs and had a good cry. Not only do I not have enough music for the year, but I don't have it at all for reherasals tonight!!! How can I be expected to play once a month in church with such a small library of songs. There is no way that this is going to happen. So until I get the rest of the allotment approved I am going to have to plan to play once every other month. Plus, he told me that all funding should be brought to the music committee. This seems rather confusing as he told me when I started that all funding requests need to be approved by him. So now what?!

Screw 'em.
Or... you can go through the hassle of negotiating a new budget. Alternatively, I'm voting Bake Sale to raise funds.
