8:18 a.m. - No grandchildren, no granddogs...just a quiet, simple morning. I love the grandchildren; I enjoy dogs. A quiet, simple morning, though, is nice too.
I do need to start thinking about next week, though. So I did send out emails to the training path presenters scheduled for next week, and I did create a lesson plan and post it for next Monday.
Yesterday I went to see Carmen. I did it last year during my spring break, so I decided to do it this year. I visited her while she was teaching at West Central. She is doing a great job, as West Central isn't the easiest of places to be. I was able to view an English II class and her yearbook class. And that Carmen actually showed me an idea about Fahrenheit 451 that I've never considered - she was using a graphic novel with the story, and I've never done that. I think I'm going to check into costs.
Then last night Tucker, Marcus, and I went to the QCOA banquet. QCOA is the Quad Cities Officials Association. I have mixed feelings about this group, but I went to the meeting, and I paid my dues, and I mingled with the "movers and shakers" of the officials in the Quad Cities. We sat with Braeden and Randy, and we had some laughs and good social time.
Today I'm going to try to meet up with Chase and have lunch. Then tonight it's a date night at the casino with Amber.
