This morning I woke up at 6:30 am (CST). I enjoyed waking up at 4:30 and puttering around before going to work. What was really special is that Heather, Renee and Elyse call me. The Doritos were on the counter, I saw three smiling faces looking at me in my PJ’s, and Heather had a beer in hand. It was like I was enjoying a Friday afternoon after a long week with my family. Only I was sharing a coffee with them. We all chatted and got caught up on the goings-on. Elyse told me she had an interview. Hope she gets the job.
Today I had to go to work as I have much to learn and prepare. Before I went to work, I “SKYPED” with my folks. I returned home at noon (CST) to find my mother on SKYPE. How great it was to have a quality conversation. Then I connected with Heather again. I am feeling less homesick now that I know I can connect with them virtually. This will allow me to focus more on the tasks at hand.
I spent the afternoon preparing for the staff meeting, gathering information and discussing student placement. Every day is becoming easier. I am looking forward to sightseeing. It looks as though I will have to wait until next Saturday. Be patient Great Wall, I will be visiting soon enough.
