6:11 a.m. - It's presidential send-off and inauguration day today!  Thank goodness.  This morning I was thinking about President Trump's legacy he leaves behind, and there are the factual things, but I think I will remember him most as just arrogant.  He's always explained how historic he and his administration has been, and that's definitely true.  I really don't care that he insists on trying to give himself a grand send-off this morning.  I just want him gone.

I'm really tired this morning, and my legs and back are beat up and need some rest and relaxation.  Last night we had a varsity game in DeWitt, but more importantly I was partnered up with my "regular crew" from Illinois, so we had a chance to have some "guy time".  It was fun to clown around and catch-up and just shoot the crap.  After yesterday's classes which only featured Mrs. Bohnsack providing a video and registration information, today will be a Free Read Wednesday day.  After school I'm going to help my brother move some furniture, so it will be good to see him.  Today and/or tonight I'll begin the process of grading those Accuplacer essays.
