Back to school!

Whee! Back to school at last! Though this year, i’ve two kids in the middle school and I’m finding that just a bit disconcerting, for sure. The boy was of course grumpy about the whole thing – The girl seems to be enjoying it though. Or rather, she was until she got her first homework assignments tonight. *L* Fortunately it’s mostly in math, and she enjoys math.

SHe’s set up in band, and her teacher got a first look at her clarinet in band class today, and said that most likely it’ll be the only one of that brand in the band – and that it was a good thing, because it’s a VERY high quality instrument and that she should be proud to play it.

Heh. made the Asshole’s day, that did. *g*

We got the teacher we wanted for the pup, so I’m happy, and she’s quite content to be back in school and the bids for being the center of attention have begun. *L* If anyone can handle her, Ms. L can, however, as she already survived my first two, and taught them so very much. When the boy was in 1st grade, he was pretty far behind – in two years Ms. L had him reading past his grade level and instilled a lifelong love of the written word in him. She did the same for the Girl, though she wasn’t far behind as he was. I know she’ll do wonders for the pup too.

I spent the majority of my weekend being a scorekeeper for the Adult Co-Ed State Softball Tourney – it was fun, but exhausting and cold -but well, 10 bucks a game, each game 1h10m, that’s like 10 bucks an hour and I made 120 on my field. *g* not bad for 1.5 days of work.

Now if they’d only PAY me. heh.

I’m grumpy.

So instead of venting, i’ma just leave ya with some cute ass kids. That are mine even.

See -told ya they was cute. *g*
