Tuesday, March 12

5:46 a.m. - Monday's are hard...Monday's after springing forward are extra hard.  We got through it.  Our presentation yesterday for the English III students is full of great information; the presenter, though, isn't very dynamic.  Today's presentation should be better.  After school yesterday, I went to my parents' house and helped get some hay down.  I didn't visit with them, though, because I don't want to get them sick.  Yesterday, my stomach was tight, but I never felt like I was going to have to run to the bathroom, so that was good.  Last night I slept okay, and that's good too.  This morning I don't have that same tightness in my belly, so maybe my flu experience was just a very, very mild experience....let's hope so.  I think Amber is going to try to head to school today.

Today, I also have my first softball game.  Sophie and I took another walk at Loud Thunder yesterday afternoon.  It wasn't a long walk.  On the very east side of the park there is a trail that goes down to Lake George and the boy scout camp.  A crew did some work on the trail, and it's a bit of a mess, but Sophie and I walked it anyway.  No walk this afternoon, as I hope to get acclimated back into softball mode.  The first game is always a bit of a "wake-up call."  I always hope I packed all my gear that I need, and with today's game, I need to hustle out of the school quickly, so I'll get partially dressed for the game at school, so I can be faster onto the field since the game is at Annawan.  One thing that will be nice will be getting a paycheck.  I need those extra paychecks throughout the year, and it's been since February 14 that I've had a paycheck.  The right foot/ankle still isn't 100% since hurting it on the 13th at Kewanee, but it's pretty close.  And maybe, like the knee on the same leg, the right foot/ankle is as good as it's going to get.

So the time has come to get back to the 12+hour work day.  At least the weather is supposed to be warm today - windy but warm.  It will be nice to have the first game back, at least, without extra layers to try to stay warm.
