Today starts much better than yesterday. Judy gets a taxi with no problem. I arrive at BISS for the band class well ahead of the 11:35 meeting time. The students are making steady improvement, and we’re having fun. We have all the brass and woodwinds together today, and they did a nice job of working together and having patience while I worked with the smaller groups.

Some of the band classes at BISS. It’s part of a 12 week exploratory unit.

After class, I make my standard trip to the nearby Chinese restaurant for the green beans. I also ordered green beans to take home for Judy, as well as an order of gunbao chicken.

The trip home in the taxi takes forever. I can’t believe how much traffic there is for non-rush hour. At the apartment, Lilly is still cleaning so I put away the food, and start working on my school materials. Tomorrow is my first class day, and I need to make sure everything is ready tonight, before I go to bed. I’ll need to leave at 6:30 am tomorrow to arrive in time to organize the classroom and get set-up for class.

The taxi home for Judy takes an hour? Unbelievable!!! Something’s going on, but I don’t know what. I can track her trip home on the “Find My iPhone” app. I think she could have walked home quicker.
