Y9 D27

Woke up six minutes before my alarm. Mad skillz baby. Have to be onsite the next two days. Out in a weird location but not horrible. I just want to miss all the traffic so I am leaving here at 5:30. That should get me around most, if not all, of it.

Did my day two, finished at about 2:30. Went through ALL of the material. Usually I am running much closer to the time mark and have to cut some stuff out. But not this time. Did all the demos for once. I attribute a lot of that to the fact that this group was quiet. Not dumb in anyway, just quiet. I was worried about their skill level coming into the class, but they all managed to make it through.

When I was done with class I dehydrated some fruit. Made apple slices. B had a thing at some crochet place with one of her friends from group so she ended up eating early. She was gone from about 5-8:30. I ate salmon later. Watched some tv, relaxed. Took a long hot bath to soak my back. While I have slept great since getting home I sometimes worry my bed is a little too firm because I will have the random back spasms. B is dealing with that too right now. I had to use the vibrating thing with heat turned on for her back yesterday.

Got some awesome news from the kid. She had an in-person interview yesterday and has another one on Monday. She is doing okay. She may actually have a job in her field before the end of the year. That would be great. One is a part time and the other is technically a paid internship, but it will be real world experience and she will get the monies. Hopefully something will come of one or the other over the next couple of weeks.

Booked our Vegas trip. Got final confirmation yesterday. Going to be there for a full week in October. Staying at the Flamingo, flying on Alaska, and seeing Britney Spears. Plus I am going as an attendee and will actually get to learn things. I am excited about this. Now to book my October concert hotel and flight. I can't believe I have October locked down already. I remember when X1 used to drive me nuts about not having plans solidified for exactly this reason. Sometimes I would be planning months in advance like this and she wouldn't even know her afternoon. Ah, fun times.

Two days on site this week, then two classes at home and I am done for 12 days. Gotta make it through.
