Long Weekend

It is going to be a very long weekend. I start my class this weekend in Northern VA. It is too bad that a group of us have to drive all the way to Falls Church, VA just to be able to take a class required for endorsement. UVA canceled the class on grounds. I am bummed mainly because it will suck up 4 weekends and the cost of gas and hotel will mean big costs in addition to the tuition. Blech. Anyway, at least it is just 4 weekends and I don't have to worry too much about childcare.

Mariah has had a busy week. We had her open house on Tuesday and her class seems like it is a blast. She did have a "yellow" card by her name for discipline so misses out on the treasure box this week. She also went to the apple orchard at Graves Mountain this week and came home with a BIG bag of apples. Time for a little apple pie.

The campaign: I am so excited that we will be out of school on election day. We have our conferences in the evening so now I can work the polls that day. I am going to be a nervous wreck that Tues. Talk about the longest day EVER. Anyway, I thought Obama did an outstanding job at the 9/11 forum last night. I look forward to seeing him on SNL Sat. THat should take the cake. Well, that is all for now.....
