[QUOTE="pigless in VA, post: 685657, member: 11832"] Bingo is pacing. I guess he wants to get an early start on squirrel patrol. Yes, Nomad, I typically have the same schedule every week unless something odd happens. Sometimes we aides have to swap jobs depending upon behaviors. Yesterday, I had to read a standardized test to a boy. I'm glad that I got the assignment, because I chose to not fuss at him for his strange behaviors during the test. I wanted him to focus on the material. Normally, we have to continually talk to him about sitting in the chair correctly and a host of other gross things that he does. He actually worked pretty well for me. He has a fear of apples, and I took a cue from WordNerd. Every time the word apple appeared in the test I called it "the fruit that must not be named." You would be surprised how many times "apples" appear in schoolwork. We have a lot of difficulty with disrespectful teens at our school. That's a topic for another day. On Sunday, I pulled a three stooge maneuver and poked my eye with a stick. It hurt pretty badly yesterday, so I went to the doctor. He gave me some antibiotic eyedrops and ointment. It already feels better today. Today is going to be a rough one. We have a half-day of school, AND we are doing more standardized testing all day. I need my rhino suit for this one, for sure!
