Grrr, I'm not in school any more
12 Nov 2011 11:30 amI was just checking my email and saw one from Meagan's history teacher. He sends them out weekly to remind us that he's sending grades home with the kids. It came on Thursday (last day of school this week). The title was about the grades so I almost didn't open it but I'm glad I did because the 2nd part of the email was to remind us that the kids have a HUGE Egyptian project due on the 15th.
Um, Meagan hasn't done anything for this project. I completely forgot about it because she showed me the paper a week after she got the assignment when I was really depressed and just didn't care about anything. Now she has no idea where this paper is because she figured it should be MY responsibility to keep track of it and make her do the project. So now she has 3 days to write a paper and build a pyramid or something (we actually have a LEGO game that is shaped like a pyramid so she could just take that in and write the paper) but she doesn't know the details since she doesn't have the paper.
I've just spent 20 minutes looking for the paper while Meagan pouted in a chair. I'm done with this crap. I finished school already. I don't want to write history papers and build pyramids.
If I hadn't seen the email she would have "forgot" all weekend then come home all upset on Monday and blame me for not having it done on Tuesday and expected me to do it all for her (or, as she calls it, help her). On top of that she invited a friend over for the night instead of working on this project. She's had a full 2 weeks to do it. Ugh.
Now she's throwing a huge tantrum over it and demanding to know why she has to learn about Egypt. I looked in her bag and it's a mess. I found two papers she was supposed to give me and a study guide that was marked "incomplete". The rest was such a mess I have no idea how she finds anything.
I just don't have the energy to deal with this crap.
