Thursday, October 5

5:57 a.m. - Last night was long but worth it.  I was able to get some things ironed out in my head regarding new basketball mechanics, and it was nice to see Jason, Robbie, and Coach Hannam from Williamsfield.  Yesterday at school was okay too.  I'm not sure the students are listening to my instruction about writing, but I guess we will find out in the coming days.

Today is Thursday, and it's garbage day, and it's get-ready-for-camping-weekend day.  The weather is looking cooler and windy on Friday - could make for an interesting drive to Fort Madison with the Eagle.  I need to get the truck in for an oil change and check tire pressure, so I'm going to try to do that right after school.  Then I'm going to stop in and visit mom and dad.  Then I'll commence on hooking up the camper and packing my clothes and food/drink items.  So it's going to be a busy day, but there won't be any officiating.
