what a day it was !
Hi Ladies,
I survived the meeting and didnt even end up in E.R today !!Thanks to my friends who worked so well with their teams ! Honestly i was expecting a lot of chaos and it wasn't bad at all:) wink wink !!
I salute some of the managers who had to deal with the hardest meeting all by themselves!!Kudos to you ! Also some of the new D.I. managers who claimed they didnt "have a clue" ( yeah ! I am talking about YOU here!!) did very well !
I tried to accomodate as many teams in the rooms as possible and some had to even move around! I sure will raise this concern for a couple team managers who are still not quite comfortable with their assigned spots.( Quick tip: Try contacting your child's or a team member's home room teacher directly and see if she lets you use her room ) Hey but you didnt hear it from me,ok?
I encourage all my Followers ( Hail the D.I. QUEEN) to please share their comments with us! Tell us how you feel, what needs to be improvised and what problems you faced....how did your 1st meeting go? I'd love that.
Reminder: its easier for me to write here than to send out emails, so encourage your partner ( no not that one) The D.I. partner to follow this blog too :) Re: sending the note to the teacher every week didnt generally seem to be a popular idea ! OK.Lets make it ONE note to the teacher so she has no excuse not to release your child to the managers.I did send a complete and comprehensive participant list to the front office and Asst. Principal !!!
Now that you have the emails for your group, introduce yourself to the parents and talk about the meeting today.If you experienced any behaviour issues today, please be very "smart" in phrasing your sentences ! ( you know what I'm saying) If the snack was not enough or a child didn't understand the challenges,feel free to share http://www.idodi.org/ with them so they can read the complete details .
3rd grade managers please email me whether you are meeting next thu or not.Let your parents know why you are skipping it and how you plan to make up for this meeting ! Those who already have mentioned to me about their decision would greatly help me by emailing me at :dimom2010@gmail.com
Thankyou ALL for bearing with me !

Its was a dark and scary night ......Yeah it is kinda scary for me tonight! I had a pretty busy day and with my dental work (unexpected due to an accident yesterday) b/w A lunch with family, girl's tests tomorrow, H.W to return ,helping a friend pack for their move to canada, re arranging the teams over and over, confirming with the managers, making sure all of them got the agenda, IC's and the details, confirming the rooms available with Mrs Mc Carthy and shopping for my youngest's friends birthday present, cooking for tomorrow,finalizing the playgroup schedule and then finding two additional ones! Sending them separate emails of how to sign up and what to expect I THINK i accomplished enough for one day but I still have to format the final copy of the Roster !!!
Have to be at school tomorrow at 2:00 fully prepared for all questions of School admin. and parents and my talented managers ! Get the rooms ready for the teams and ....will talk about tomorrow later( gives me the chills :)
If I look sick tomorrow please don't be surprised ! I salute Wendy for doing it 5 years in a row without being admitted to mental ward ONCE !! Now I cant promise ya''ll that for myself :)
OK D.I. here I come.....So help me GOD :)

Tell me what your previous D.I. experience has been like?
I emailed 157 times today !!!!!!!!!!
I can't believe I'm writing this , I emailed 157 times since morning!! Mostly to Ann L. and Wendy P. but also to 84 parents and then 21 managers twice separately and obviously the rest were either desperate requests to be a manager or replying to parents !
