Today was the first day of school...what a feeling of being out of ones element! I definitely over-estimated the ability level of the 4th and 5th graders....serious need to reconsider how I do things and how much time it will take. They were very nice kids though, so that made up for it. Luckily the majority of the time was just for the "specials" anyway (somehow my gifted enrichment got lumped in with art, music, pe, etc). The regular science class went ok. Review of scientific method...not always the most exciting of subject areas.
Ended up staying for an hour and a half after school, yes, still doing some work. Finally had to leave: the power went out. So we made our way over to the other side of this base (it's really kind of a mixture of base, air stations, and barracks) to my lodging...I sure hope it didn't take Deb too long to get off base. I have been sitting here for a few hours attempting not to go to sleep...if I went to sleep before the power came back on, I couldn't set the clock and the alarm.
I am so ready for sleep. Didn't sleep well last night, so kind of drowsy now. Needless to say, didn't go anywhere today, so didn't take any pictures :( Tomorrow is another day!
Oh yeah, almost forgot...I guess that hot humid weather was just to confuse me...it is now cool (only 61 degrees F at the moment) and when its not raining, it looks like it will...rather chilly!
