Feeling Lackluster

I have some serious senioritis setting in and i'm not even technically a senior yet! I am exhausted at trying to finish my degree. I hate going to work then leaving early to make it to school. I hate the feeling of being a bad employee because of it. I never get direct grief for it but I know when they need someone to cover a classroom or to sit with a student during testing I can't because I leave work 3 of the 5 days early. I don't like feeling like i'm not a dependable person.

Also, because of my health issues I come in late or leave early on those two days I do work full days because of doctors appointments. I do get comments from a co-worker about how i'm never at work and though she understands i'm trying to finish school, and I understand the fact that she's half joking, I know that she hated when I had to leave early and she was stuck with a bunch of kids all to herself. I know because she would tell me. How can I not take those "joking" comments to heart? That just makes me feel bad inside.

As you can tell i'm not in the best mood right now. Mind frame is stuck in the dumps. Oh but I guess this is good news. I spoke with our landlord about the neighbors chair and she said that if she receives a fine because he hasn't bothered to comply to the City then he will be charged and not us. THANK GOODNESS. Now I am secretly hoping that they come to remove it early in the morning and stick him with a big fat fine for not doing it.
