Today was my first day of Opening School Experience! I got up at 5:30 and drove to Harrisonburg in my teacher clothes. After nearly getting lost from Sandy's short-cut directions, I made it to Skyline Middle School. My teacher is young and very sweet and we got along pretty well.
My biggest success of the day was that I remained conscious through the part of the meeting on blood-borne pathogens (can't say the same for my yellow fever shot earlier this week)! Yes, I am serious: this was a major accomplishment.
I also resolved a little Goldilocks and the three suitcases issue. The bag that I had originally planned to take to Africa could hold everything, but it was really tight. The next biggest suitcase that we had was a monster. So I finally found the perfect one that has just a little extra room for some souvenirs to come home with me.
Now it's time for some more "staycation" at the Hershey house. Who knows what we'll get into this weekend?
