Today was our department day away so there were 5 subs at JMM for art. I don't think any problems happened as I left my cell phone # with the sub & plenty of kids have my number so some one would have called had hell broken loose. It was a nice day with colleagues talking about district changes, courses, ideas, students and classes. I'm not always 100% comfortable at department meetings for various reasons but today was comfortable.
I came home to find Erika and Monika cleaning out the Jetta. Erika got it fixed and drove it home. She needs her drivers license still but she didn't seem to think it was a big deal if she drove it (not just today but from now on) as long as she obeyed traffic laws. I had to hold myself back from sounding like my mother (as my mom reads this, I know she's holding herself back from freaking out). Monika suggested I hide the keys from her, but I would like her just to do the right thing. The car works now & needs to be driven so she should get her license asap. I told Erika to call the DMV on Monday and I'll inform my insurance as soon as she passes. Until then I think I'm keeping the keys- no arguments will be encouraged.
Well, my modem is dead. No surprise to me since it's on 24/7. But just one evening without internet is painful. My photos from my meeting and of the Jetta will have to be added later. Luckily Jessi, Moni and I all have iPhones to keep us sane. I can post my blog, Jessi is just listening to music & reading (no Internet needed) but Monika is streaming a Netflix movie on her phone. Oh, how we love our technology.
