Saturday, April 25

7:26 a.m. -  Yesterday was another battle. I had an ROE Principals' Meeting in the morning, and I got back to school around 12:30.  The meeting was informational, and it satisfied my need to have an Administrator's Academy for this year, so now I think I can renew my teaching/administrator certificate.  There wasn't a whole lot to do when I got back to school, so that was good.  We did post for the reading interventionist position we now have at our building, as the TRE position has now been filled by one of the ICE staff members.  Hopefully, our position now at ICE can be filled easily and quickly. 

After school, I stopped at the house and then headed to the campground.  It was a beautiful night to have a fire, so that was nice.  And then I watched a little LAFF on MeTV before falling to sleep and eventually going to bed.  So now we are at the campground, and the next step is to make some breakfast.  I'm not sure what else we will be doing today.

Friday, April 24

4:57 a.m. - This week shouldn't have been a battle.  It was.  If you remember, I anticipated that.  Just because a week looks fairly clear at the beginning of the week does not mean it will stay that way.  And I've found that usually carma kicks in when there appears to be a simple, easy week.  Yesterday after a lengthy admin meeting, the afternoon came and went.  I did manage to get the camper to West Lake Summit Campground last night, so that's good.  That effort saved me a little time today, and if I had waited until today, there may not have been a spot let.  There were more campers there last night than I expected.  I guess the camping season has hit full swing for everyone else too.  

Today is Friday...finally.  I have a Principals' Meeting at the ROE this morning, which is actually at WIU.  Then I hope to get through the afternoon at IC Elementary before heading back out to the campground this evening for a nice evening.  I'm hoping for a campfire, maybe a beverage, a little MeTV, and a quiet night of sleep.  Let's see how it goes.

Thursday, April 23

4:57 a.m. - Yesterday was a day I guess.  There was frustration; there were a few student issues; there were five grandchildren at home when I arrived after school, and I didn't get the grass mowed nor the camper moved.  I guess in a nutshell I didn't achieve much yesterday, but the day was survived.  

Today there is an admin meeting in the morning.  I'm never quite sure what will come out of those.  Just keep swimming.  I'm still not sure about after school...there may be some weather moving in, so that might factor in.
