and then a call from his English teacher because he has a 65 in class right now and failed to turn in 2 assignments today so got 2 zeros. Both assignments were things that should hve been brought home to do this week. and 1 thing due this week he has had for at least 2 weeks to work on and I have never seen it. OY!
Xander: We just saw the zebras mating! Thank you, very exciting... Willow: It was like the Heimlich, with stripes!

Yep.
Spent 2 hours working on the street. I cleared the start of it which was a horrid icy glacier. We're clear up to the first intersection. Unfortunately , after that, it gets dicey ( though there are more folks out now, so maybe they're working on that.) We may all be reversing in and out for a bit.
Especially looking at tonight's forecast. It makes me want to cry.
I'm back to teleworking with a blister that may be spawning a blister, and my boots need to dry out. Everything is thawing rapidly (it's 45°!!!!) and there are veritable rivers of melt running down the street.
Which is all going to freeze up tonight. Uhg. And I've GOT to get to the stores tomorrow.

I probably should feel bad that I'm letting a manager take over this leadership presentation when my manager said it would be a good opportunity for me to make a brand for myself. But it's not like I present at leadership meetings that often, and I'd rather have my brand be about collaboration and iteration than "here is a crappy presentation that I made all by myself."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ugh, my mother is so classic her. She offered me a ride to the airport, and I knew she wouldn't want to do it, once I told her when! And sure enough, she is out -- granted, it's rush hour and dinner time, so I get it, but still.

Video of a ferret confusingly named "Badger" wearing a sweater that surely doesn't fit right and attempting to get back in the house.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
mac did not say anything in class, but when he got to his next class he asked to go see the counselor (first time seeing counselors at jr. high). Counselor listened to him, heard him, and is writing the substitute up.
That is awesome. Really. I am so proud of how hard you've both worked to get to a place where this can happen.
Okay, and the English thing. Kids, man. I hear they are complicated.
and I'd rather have my brand be about collaboration and iteration
Yep.
