Way ahead of schedule (they usually start in August), I had my first back to school stress dream. I dreamt I was walking into the school schlepping all my stuff for my first teacher work day back. I walked past Miriam's room and there were students and parents and it was back to school night and I didn't know it was back to school night!
I went in my classroom and everything was totally different including a rock climbing wall and this sketchy looking amphitheater on one side that looked like ancient ruins. None of it seemed all that safe. Students started coming and I couldn't pronounce any of their names.
I have a full (except Wednesday) week of school stuff this week, so maybe that is where it is all coming from!
Stress dream aside, we had a good weekend. It was productive and we spent time together and that is about all I want.
On Saturday, Adam wanted to redeem his birthday gift card from Emma at The Root Beer Store. So we met up with her and went together. Adam bought some root beer and Emma got some ancient salt water taffy that was as hard as a rock. (No teeth were lost.)
We also went to Trader Joe's and Winco together. I love to be with Emma. She told us her itinerary for her upcoming Spain trip and I think it sounds like she will have a great time. She is planning to hit a lot of art museums and I approve!
After parting with Emma we went to the World's Largest Costco, but didn't even venture into the parts that make it so vast. We stuck to what we usually get, with the addition of an outdoor rug for the deck.
Yesterday I did primary singing time again because my partner was out of town. I think it is actually easier when you do it consecutively. You can pick up where you left off.
On Sunday afternoon, I was sitting next to Kim at a stake primary meeting. She leaned over and showed me her phone. Rod had just texted her that we had the same rug on our deck that they have on theirs. We can't see their deck, but they can see ours.
They had just bought theirs on Friday.
I told her we both have excellent taste.
Today I have my team + Jamie coming over for our collaboration. It was the first time in forever we tidied the house on Sunday evening. We will be working on learning progressions. I was telling Adam about it and he asked, "Have you had AI help you with that?" I said no and also that I didn't know how.
Bad idea to tell Adam you don't know how to do something if you don't want to do something. He had me get my computer. I was skeptical, but AI did a pretty good job!
Look at me, on the cutting edge....
