5:20 a.m. - I'm feeling fortunate that I don't live in Florida right now. Hurricane Milton is expected to hit the east coast of Florida, and it's a biggie. While it may lose a little punch before it reaches land, right now it's Category 5 and forecasting folks are using language like "historic" and "catastrophic". Yikes.
Yesterday was just another day in paradise. I think I'm starting to get use to the "business", and by that I mean the "busy nature" of each day. Yesterday was a perfect example. At 7:15 a classroom teacher entered the building to tell us she was going to have to go back home because I pipe was broken in her basement and she had water all over. So now it's scramble time to find a sub for the class. In the middle of the day, a dad contacted me to get information on his son, and he apparently hasn't had much interest in his child's school before, so now I need to look into that. Upon entering the building yesterday, I would never have anticipated those types of things, but that's how the day goes - see what happens and adapt or bend and do the best to carry on the day as if no one knows any different.
Oh, and yesterday I had my eye appointment check-up, and that's going well. And yesterday afternoon I went to Quad City Christian for the first time and worked some volleyball officiating, and that went fine. And I observed the new music teacher in class, and that went fine. And day two of the pilot para experiment went better.
So today, while the only "official thing" I have at school is a post-observation visit with Anna, I also need to get ready for the academic assembly on Friday, and I want to do some work with the pilot para's schedule - adding notes that were put in place by Karli yesterday. After that, I'll see what else is on the to-do list or tackle the "unknown items" that are likely going to occur today.
Things for School
- Oct. 9 - 2 p.m. - post-observation with Anna

- Get response from Carmen regarding Christmas (maybe the 23rd)

- Sunday, Dec. 22 and Monday, Dec. 23 - I'm open - no games. And Carmen suggested these days might work on her calendar. She has her church Christmas program on the 22nd. Maybe they could drive up and spend the night on the 22nd and stay as long as they would like or are able on the 23rd?
