I went to bed at 9:20pm and Set my alarm for 6 AM. Don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t worry I was awake at 11:30 and 1:45 and between 2:15 and 4:30am. I slept like a rock when I wasn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t awake. <\/span><span class=\"s3\">\u00f0\u0178\u02dc\u201a\u00f0\u0178\u02dc\u201a<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">After yesterday afternoon and evening, I solidly determined that this is not a dog friendly walking neighborhood (Especially in the rain). It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s safe enough, but just not dog friendly. And definitely not flip-flop friendly. Lots of places I had to pick Nichol up and carry him and I only biffed one time setting him down. I forgot how slippery these sidewalks are. For lack of a better term, they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re not really sidewalks, plus I had the wrong flip flops on, and the angle of the sidewalks makes them precarious at best PLUS I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m dodging parked cars and motorbikes And my commitment to picking up my dog\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s poop is going toward a lost cause here, that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s all I have to say about that. You can read between the lines<\/span><span class=\"s3\">\u00f0\u0178\u00a4\u00a6\u00f0\u0178\u008f\u00bb\u00e2\u20ac\u008d\u00e2\u2122\u20ac\u00ef\u00b8\u008f<\/span><span class=\"s2\">. The afternoon walk had me looking for water and sources of food. Water found\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6..food not so much! For the evening walk I went the other direction and there\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a pack of very angry very large dogs (behind a metal fence thank goodness). But let\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s just say they were less than happy that Nichol was walking by their turf. Once again very safe but just not as pleasant as I would\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve hoped. PS Nichol didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t really care\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6..<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">Anyways in some of those chunks of time over the middle of the night when I was awake I did some planning for my classroom. I have lots of ideas that I bring with me from my previous experiences, my greatest wish is that they are welcomed and appropriate for me to implement here. I am mindful that I am starting the school year for someone else in someone else\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s classroom. But to be fair she gave me no direction as to her wishes and the administration has said I should implement whatever suits me. So here I go.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve got instant coffee in hand, I just need to get dressed, walk Nichol and order my grab. I had every intention of walking to school as it is about a 20 minute walk. But last night I looked up the cost of a grab and it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s about $1.10. Perhaps that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a good use of a dollar at this hour in the morning <\/span><span class=\"s3\">\u00f0\u0178\u02dc\u2030<\/span><span class=\"s2\"> I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m very excited also quite nervous. Some positive self talk at this point is probably a good idea. I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll post again when I get home tonight so everyone knows how it went.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s 6:08 AM.
