Wednesday, February 28

5:50 a.m. - Geez...winter came back.  Yesterday after school I went for a walk at Loud Thunder, and it was near 80 degrees; this morning it's a feel like temperature of zero.  There were tornadoes reported east of us last night as this cold front rolled through.  After getting back from my walk, I made some supper and then watched Rockridge boys basketball win a sectional semifinal agains Peoria Notre Dame.  My supper was awesome.  Kraig McPeek gave me six farm fresh eggs last Saturday, and I finally had a chance to fry some up.  A little bacon, some toast....that's good stuff.

Yesterday at school went as planned.  We got some more presentations completed, and we pushed out the upcoming essay assignment.  There was too much down time for the day, but the students didn't drive me completely crazy.

Today should be okay.  Dress warm for this cold day, and then get through a Free Read Wednesday.  And then...let's call it a weekend.
