Volunteered Today

It was really hard to volunteer today.  No regular parking place, no place to put my purse, no key to get in, and kids hugging me...adults commenting, I guess it might hurt my feelings if nobody noticed I was there, but I guess today answered my question about do I miss it.  No.  A kid asked why I retired.  I said I was tired of making all that money and wanted to give being poor a trial.  He looked pretty confused.  School is a good place to me.  I like kids and teachers.  I even like administrators mostly.  But they keep wanting more crap for their nickel.  It isn't the administrators' fault, but I'm convinced if I teach faster than they can learn, I haven't taught it at all.  I'm better out of it.
