I am officially done teaching until July 10th. I can finally rest my damn voice. I have needed this break like crazy. So excited to be doing nothing. Well, not true. I have a list of about 20 things I want to accomplish while I am "on vacation". More on that in a minute.

Got up at 4:40, taught my class. Class went okay. We had some server issues before lunch. I managed to get through them okay, but it was a little rough. Then there were a couple of small demo issues. I haven't taught this class in months and totally screwed up one demo. I couldn't find where the option I was looking for was hidden. I knew it was somewhere but man I couldn't find it for the life of me. I felt like such a dunderhead. But we got through it. Finished around 2:40 and called it a day.

After class the urge to nap was strong but I resisted. B was having an earache and had lain down around 1:30. I instead started tackling things on my list. I have about 20 items on there ranging from simple stuff like "Rehang B shelf" to "Clean up music library". I managed to get about six of them done after class. "Clean out under the bed" was one of them. B has an issue with the cats going under the bed because her anxiety causes her to freak out in the case of an emergency. We had clothes bins under the bed and her issue was if something was going on, she wouldn't be able to fish them out fast enough. So she constantly keeps the bedroom door closed and goes nutty when the cats go in there. We reached a compromise. I like the bedroom door open to allow it to air out in there but it was only going to happen if I found a new home for the bins. I cleaned out some stuff in our patio storage closet, moved the bins, and voila. Everyone happy, especially the cats. Then I rehung aforementioned shelf. Took down the recycling. Couple more small things. Today I am hoping to knock off about 4 or 5 things on the list.

B went to group and I just kind of hung around until she got home. When she did, we headed off to the store. I got a new toolbox to clean up all of my tools floating all over the place (one of my list items). Now today I am going to swap where the tools were with one of her craft bins. While at the store it was dead and I could actually hear the music playing. Bad Company Run with the Pack. This naturally got Bad Company stuck in my head. Had to come home and update my library. Man that's good music. Some of it at least. Anything past Rough Diamonds with the exception of Rock N Roll Fantasy is meh. They're still touring. Original lineup and all. Would love to see that show. I miss having all my old concert t-shirts. So many shows seen.

Went to bed around 11:30 because I am on vacation dammit. In a little while heading out to knock list items off. I am going to do some work today, but on my schedule and at my pace. This will be nice.
