Another new post?! WTF is this?

I'm feeling very biggity today.  It all started when I woke up and the garage was leaking this morning.  And on top of that, I just didn't sleep very well last night, because I tried to patch the roof the day before, woke up, heard it raining, and started worrying about the leak.  I have put another patch on the roof today, but I'm not too confident in that particular work, so I guess we'll see tomorrow morning, because it's suppose to rain again tonight.  When it comes to home repairs, I try to be handy, but a lot of the time, it's winging it until it works.

On other news, I did go on a walk with Atticus this morning, after I dropped Ollie off to school.  I had a pleasant time this morning getting to be outside, walking around the pond at Bedford Boys' Ranch, and watching the ducks.  Atticus kept up with my walking pace the first round (about 10 minutes), but slowed down significantly by the second and third.  I shot this picture to Amanda, and laughed.  Atti wasn't happy with the picture. 



Atticus is way back there, barely a speck.  He was so tired after our thirty minute walk that he didn't want to go play on the playground afterwards (which was secretly my intention the whole time).

On the online school front, I'm still waiting for things to officially start going.  My dual credit students are suppose to take their midterms this week, but none have started yet, even though I shot an email saying it was opened up yesterday. And even though I email them, none respond back to me.  It's not like I'm asking them questions, but it would be nice to see some movement.  But, the due date isn't until Sunday night, so I guess we'll have to wait and see how this all goes.  I've taught a lot of online classes before, but I don't care for it too much, if I'm being honest with myself.  I portray myself as a misanthrope, but I enjoy the classroom setting and interacting with students, and I'm just not getting that rewarding an experience finishing off the semester. And, I really enjoyed my first period class, was expecting to see them for a few months longer, and it's just really unexpected how everything stopped and I'm probably not going to see them again. 

Like I said, it's been a rough day.  I think I'll go make myself a drink and watch 'The Golden Girls' with Amanda.
