Friday, March 27

5:02 a.m. - Illlinois won last night against Houston.  I was pleasantly surprised!  They played really well, but Iowa also won.  They played well too.  Now Iowa and Illinois play in the Elite 8 on Friday - yikes!  The rest of yesterday was okay.  I did get to see Cole yesterday too.  In typical Cole fashion he had news for me that he will be traveling back to Los Angeles.  I guess he figured he need to come see me before he left, and that was nice of him.  Of course the Dad in me worries about him going all that way in that city, but he's an adult and he needs to pursue his dreams and goals.  

Today could be interesting - if anything it will be eventful.  I need to ride a route with Mrs. Hall, and then I'm accompanying the first grade teachers and students to go to Circa 21.  Hopefully there won't be too many fires to put out at IC Elementary when I get to the afternoon.  And then tonight Iowa State plays, and I'd like to watch that game.  The important thing is that it's Friday and Spring Break begins after the school day ends today!  And I think it's pay day!
