Friday, September 12

4:49 a.m. - Yesterday was a long day for an 11:30 dismissal day.  The morning wasn't easy, as the student that has given me difficulty did so once again yesterday.  Then it was off to AES to observe the culture team PD afternoon.  Then it was back home for a quick break before helping with the homecoming parade.  Then I attended the groundbreaking ceremony for the new grade school addition.  The ceremony was very good and meaningful - celebrating the efforts that went into the referendum as well as the planning and design work for construction.  When I got home, I tried to watch some Thursday Night Football, but I only lasted until halftime.

Today, I'd really like the day to be quiet.  I'd like to then go to the homecoming football game.  I'm just tired, but it's Friday.  I'm always tired on Fridays.
