Judy heads out at 7:45 for her 8:30 am Professional Development session. It\u2019s all about assessment. When you\u2019re looking at one \u201clast\u201d assessment, after 39 years of teaching, one of the last things you want to spend a half-day doing is sitting through discussions about \u201cassessment\u201d. Her attitude is grudgingly cooperative.<\/p>\n
After the session, Judy and several of the elementary faculty travel to Homeplate BBQ to celebrate Shannon\u2019s birthday. They have a cake and some good BBQ. Afterwards, its off to Lilly Nails for some nail touch-ups. After the nails, Judy and Shannon go over and visit Anna and her 5 month old baby. It\u2019s after 8:00 when Judy finally gets home. It\u2019s been a long day, split between boredom and fun.<\/p>\n
I have a really active day. I start off with a trip to the wet market, then a swim. After the swim, I prepped the vegetables, and cleaned the strawberries (really good). I rode the bike over to the table tennis club. The weather is beautiful. The place was packed. All 30 tables were full, and over 40 people sitting around waiting for an open table. I sat for one-half hour before I finally got a chance to play. I\u2019ve improved so much from when I started playing last May. I was worn out after almost two hours on a table. I rode the bike home, and put together the vegetable soup when I arrived. I\u2019m gonna be sore tomorrow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
