I am SO not ready for the Dayton Hamvention! I leave for Ohio on Thursday after school. Will meet one of the SATERN particulars from Chicago at the Washington Street Fazoli's just off I-465 (because construction has the I-70/ SR 267 area of Plainfield so messed up), then we will caravan to Dayton in order to get to Hara Arena just in time to set up the SATERN booth before they shut things down for the night there. I don't have a room reserved! Will play that by ear. If I have to, I will sleep in the stinkin' car! (I am hoping that the motel I have stayed in for the past few years will still have a room. Need to call tomorrow!)
Before I can leave school on Thursday, I have to have two days' worth of lesson plans laid out for the sub. (For the past couple of years, I have taken the Monday after Dayton off, for my own mental health. It is the nicest thing I have done for myself in ages! This year, I will have to drive up to Muncie to pick up the dog...so there won't be much "mental health" about it.)
It's just that everything telescopes in May with so much to do. I am just running from one thing to the other without doing anything well. <sigh> Maybe next year I will be relieved of some of my Dayton responsibilities so I can actually enjoy the hamfest! And RIGHT after that comes the end of the school year. This year, since my laptop computer is still at Meg's (I forgot it!) so will be away from the Internet for the weekend, I think I will take my grade book to Dayton and work on grades in my "spare time".
Meg is in her first week of weight watching and having success. She inspires me. I really need to get serious about taking off about 50 pounds. I can do this...but maybe not this weekend...
One more Monday of school. I look forward to a few days of relaxation before the next round of responsibilities hits. In fact, I need to start making my "to do" list now, or the summer will get away from me!
I'm blabbering here. Time for bed!
