Oh, well, I was able to attend a really good West Haven barbecue where Elan grilled chicken, burgers, and steak that were seasoned to perfection. Always love a good meal that someone else prepares. I credit Kathy Silver with the preparation, though...all of it so good and great to see ol' Bassick teachers, the boys, and their friends. Yes, I do the Irish departure, though, and leave before everyone walks down to the huge crowds and fireworks. If I wasn't overstimulated by work, I might crave such noise and chaos on a weekend, but I'm perfectly fine being with a book on a couch at 9 pm on a Sunday night. No need for any fanfare.
The first round of kids arrive tomorrow and I need to get to campus to make sure everything is good to go and receive them. The first day is always the most chaotic, as it's new for parents and kids, especially finding the right space on campus. There's a lot of questions, too, and medical forms, and needs, and pick-up switcharoos. In short, it's a great location to be a Director who is orchestrating it all. It gets done, but Day One is always frantic. It'll each every day of the week, until it starts again the week after.
I'm heading to another grocery store today. Maybe Big Y was out of the power (and after I post this, I'm likely to go into my cupboards, because I'm likely to have some already.
I hate shopping. I hate shopping even more when I can't find what I'm looking for and it should be right there. Rant over. Heading out doors for the day.
