what a week!

Wow, the week started off with a bang with the Fall Fitness Festival, and just kept getting better. Or just kept going. Or something. We got a new student on Wednesday, and my teacher wasn't kidding when she said it only takes one bad egg to disrupt the whole basket. Wow, and we thought our kids were bad until this one showed up. Demanding, sneaky, obnoxious, loud. No one knew how to respond to her, not even my teacher. In all her years of teaching, she'd never encountered anything like this.

Thursday we had two assemblies, which messed up everything. One was to kick off the annual pie sales fund raiser, and the other was the Harlem Ambassadors, formerly known as the Harlem Globetrotters. Today was picture day and a walk around the school with Governor Rounds, along with television crews and question and answer time for him.

The boxelder bugs are taking over the apartment. I broke one of Aaron's wine glasses last night. The bed frame almost fell apart for no apparent reason last night, and I have some kind of thing in my eye that's not quite a stye, but treated the same way. I think it's called a chazalion or something like that. Basically it's the same thing, except instead of a plugged up/inflamed eyelash folicle, it's a duct that is plugged in my lower eyelid and it hurts and is swollen. Ouch. It hurts to blink!

I got some prescription ointment for it thanks to the college nurse practitioner, and hopefully it will be gone soon.

Well, that's enough of that...time for dinner!
