MLK and Day 1 of Week 2

Yesterday was MLK Day, so we had that off school. Yeah! Slept in until 10:30, woke up to my roommate making a ham, egg, and cheese sandwich. She made me one too, what a sweetheart. Then I fell back asleep on the couch until 12:15. After being awake for about 5 minutes I was informed that Kaye would be here in 15 minutes to take us to the grocery if we wanted to go. And we did want to go.

So we went to the Commissary and a German grocery store in Baumholder. Got some things for the week and also got some different cheeses and some Greek yogurt at the Germany grocery. It was a successful trip.

We didn't do much all day, and it was great. We made some fish and chips for dinner. We watched a movie. I uploaded and captioned pictures. Then I wrote a blog from the weekend and added pictures onto that. All of that took all evening and night. I just worked on it while we were doing other stuff. Got to bed kind of late last night. Oh well.

Today was the first day of the second week of student teaching. It's a short week since we had Monday off! I sent the email out to teachers letting them know who I am and that I'm available for help with research projects, special projects, reading a story, or doing a book talk. I received some great responses.. and really soon after I sent the email out, too! I'm feeling pretty good about that.

Terry took Liz, Sallie, Al, and me to the post office after school. After that, we came back to my apartment for a Tuesday with Terry meeting. We talked about a lot of stuff and we all are feeling stressed out. I don't think I would feel so bad if I knew what was going on with my student teaching. It's going to be hard to do the big unit project being at each school for only half the time and not having a whole lot to do. Hopefully it'll work itself out.

We're starting to plan weekend trips again. Stressful, but I can't wait for them.

We ate tortellini for dinner tonight, baguette and cheese. We're watching Love Actually right now, but I really just kind of want to go read too.
