Much sleep. Require more.Awake no want to be. Bah.

Spent the first half of yesterday stressing out waiting for my taxes to arrive. It was scheduled to arrive by 10:30am and as of 9am was stil not showing as out for delivery. It did arrive at 11am which reduced my stress. After class around 5, I walked those babies over to the mailbox and sent them on their merry way. Taxes be done for another year. I want no more trouble with the IRS. You all remember what has happened in the past. Never again dammit.

Sort of realted to that - around 4:45pm yesterday my phone screamed a forced government alert at me. As of 5pm yesterday we are under state mandate to wear masks whether these whiny ass bitches like it or not. You're out in public? You're wearing a mask. End of discussion. My students heard the alert go off and were like WTF was that?

Side side note - they should be careful with those. I doubt there's a way to do this, but they should avoid sending those to children's phones. Same goes with Amber alerts. Freak kids out.

Back to the post office, I was there 15 minutes after the alert and of course, old white people waiting in line were grumping about it. Funny thing too, there were a good 6 or so people standing in the lobby of the post office and not one of them was using the automated machine. I walked in, looked around, went right up to the automated, got my postage, done. Technology is your friend people.

My class was decent. Day two today. We'll see how they do with faster paced material. Some should be fine. 12 students total. One is really sharp, about 8 are doing okay, and 3 not so much. But we'll get there.

Chicken with rice for dinner. Was good. B had a lot of spoons yesterday and managed to accomplish quite a few tasks including making dinner. Proud of her for that.

Almost forgot, we had a little drama yesterday. We had a mail truck break down in our driveway. The postal worker was there to drop off a package and her van died. She was so embarrased but we thought it was funny. The neighbors must have wondered why a mail truck was in our driveway for like an hour.

My lips are so cracked right now. I hate dry weather. Bring me back the humidity please.
