Monday, August 12 - It was bound to arrive someday...Back To School

4:45 a.m. - It's early, but I'm awake, so I might as well start the day.  Yesterday was a day I needed.  The weather was great.  There were no "events" on the schedule.  I was able to get some things done but also relax too.  I worked with the camper to clean the nose, grease the wheels, and also install the new outside shower box.  I'm not completely happy with that last job because I just haven't figured out how to work with caulk and have it look nice.  After the camper work, I went to mom and dad's and visited and had some lunch.  Jack was there, and he's looking better.  Then it was back home for one more little project.  The day wasn't done, though.  I drove down to Shiver's for a little ice cream and then drove to ICE to check on the building and take a couple of items to my office.  After that I came home and watched the NASCAR race on television and then went to bed.  Oh, I almost forgot; I completed my Public Works Training stuff to start the day...that was a long list of trainings to complete.

So on to today!  I'm going to run to Muscatine and grab a couple of boxes of donuts and then make my way to the first day of the 24-25 school year.  The teachers have a training at 8:30, and I aim to be in that training.  Well, I hope to get the training started and observe it.  It will be my first look at all this new "reading curriculum stuff" that seems to be such the big topic of discussion.  The school day ends at 1 p.m., but I'll stay likely and try to get some more work done before the "backpack" night event.  I'm still not sure what my role is for that, but I'll likely find out more today.

I don't think I'm nervous about today.  I think I have completed all the ground work needed to be as ready as possible for today.  I'm more interested to get through today and tomorrow and see what Wednesday looks like with students in the building.
