This week has been fairly uneventful. I have been teaching the same information as last week only this time it has been to the slower group. It hasnt been easy. It seems like everything that took 30 minutes last week has turned into an hour plus with this group. It doesnt help that there are 12 people in this group who all need individual instruction and verification of what they are donig is correct, but oh well. I am planning on writing the test this weekend and giving it to the first group next Friday. If I give it to them next week that will leave a week each of extra material for each group and I think that it will be better for them to get tested on the information as soon as possible. Well I mean it will make it easier for me to review with them, I dont think it will have any effect on grades since what I teach one day seems to have been forgotten by the next.
Last night I got soaked on the way to class which really sucked, I felt like I was in some old movie where the rain and wind are so strong that the umbrella turns inside out and ceases to be of any use. When I left my room it was quite pleasant outside (merely drizzling) but by the time I was halfway to the station the heavens just opened up on me. I quickly got my umbrella out, but along with the rain came this crazy wind that just pushed the rain horizontally leaving my umbrella completely useless. Fyi there are no houses for the majority of my walk, only fields, so there was no possibility of shelter.
I got a haircut today, just got it trimmed up. I dont really have anything else to write about, my life has been blissfully uneventful (boring) this week. Pura Vida

Hey! It sounds like you are going to be ready to have a little fun for halloween. Do they do a halloween event there? Yes or no, I hope that you will have a dry and fun weekend. Your Mom and Dad are here in Kirksville this evening. Nana and them are over a a concert right now. I don't know if you know that I have injured my back...strained lombar...or not. But it mades sitting for more than 10 minutes a real "pain."
