What Happened to Last Week!

The week before students come back is a real busy week for teachers. We had seven days of training and most of one day for a work day. With Robert in athletics and being a senior, we had Project Graduation Events and Athletics issues at the scrimmage Friday. With Sarah being in band, we had meet the teacher night and Band Boosters Thursday. Our schedule got full extremely fast. We'll be adding James more and more to the schedule in two to three weeks when junior high football starts playing games.

Between Thursday night and Friday, we were doing things for band and found out that only 5 freezers of ice cream were coming to support project graduation. We got busy and made three more. Kerry started it, Beth and Butch got the freezers going, then I was able to come home and get them packed in ice to take. We made chocolate, peach, and strawberry. They sold all of the ice cream that was brought making $150 for the organization.

Robert and the rest of the Bears did real well against Gorman. Gorman went to the playoffs last year and they didn't lose very many boys. We didn't either. We moved the ball against them and made touchdowns. Football should be more fun to watch this year. The first high school game is next Friday in Menard.

Sarah tells me that there are almost 50 students in band (in summer band) this year. That is up from what we started with before school last year. They should have a fun year since this is the year that they do not advance in UIL Contests in Band. They have the opportunity to go on every other year.

Well, I'd better get busy. I'm working on an Herbalife order to send tonight, so let me know if you would like anything this week. Also, the AEP North areas are still 14.4 cents/KWH in electricity. Let me know if you are ready to become my electric customer.

Have a Great Week,
Brad
