Another day another dollar

Well the week ended with Friday the 13th. There was no ominous loomings during my day, although the night before I was working on my on-line computer course. I had posted what I felt was an excellent reflection on business and teaching. It took me about 20-25mins to compose it. It wasn't an assignment, just something you type up in a textbox and then post. I proofed it a couple of times and then hit the Post button to submit my amazing composition. And then...... my &())&%* rural internet kicked out. That or my router. I did swear out loud a couple of times. Because I am eternally optimistic I thought maybe it sent in the microseconds that lapsed before it kicked out. No such luck. So there I was at 11pm, wayyy after my bedtime, trying to re-write what I had done.

I do pride myself in not being a slow learner, so my second effort was done on word. I figured I would save it, and then cut and paste. Well the cut and paste isn't working for some reason, so I had to attach it. Cut and paste works at school, so I will have to see what the setting problem is on my laptop.

Friday saw the girls heading to Kenora for a volleyball tournament and Dominic heading to Thunder Bay for a basketball tournament. Josh had a wrestling tournament here, so that left Noah here with us.

And on a very happy note, my niece and her husband brought the first great grandchild into the world for Nick's mom. A beautiful baby girl. How could she be anything else. Look at the gene pool she comes from. No name or weight as I post this. Hope to find that out today. Dominic might have the opportunity between games for my brother-in-law to pick him up to go for a quick visit.

And away I go, heading into town to go watch some more intense wrestling.
