First Day of School! First Day of School!

We officially began our 2009/10 school year. The Transformer has been promoted to 2nd grade--whoo hoo! and the Kitty Cat is now a Kindergartener!

Unfortunately, our first day did not go so well. I keep many files on my computer, and have software that I use for certain subjects on another computer. I made the mistake of not restarting my laptop to be ready for today, and the loading speed was just horrendous. Too late, I realized that I needed to restart it. That took up a bit of our morning time. Also, I had neglected to account for taking school pics in the morning before classes, so that got us starting out about ten minutes late. Then when it was time for the Transformer to work on his Korean, I had difficulty with the software that we are using and had to uninstall and re-install the whole thing. argh.

Then, when I thought we were getting back on track and were only about thirty minutes behind schedule, our internet service started to go down. Along with my daily plan. ACK! Well, Kirk worked on that and got it back up and running. After that, the rest of the day went relatively normally. Including the bickering and complaining that happens on one of our less popular days.

Tomorrow will be a better day, for sure.

Also, tonight was the American Heritage Girls Parent Orientation and Girl Registration Night. I finally met my Assistant Leader in person, along with all of the girls we have so far in Pathfinders. We had a total of five girls tonight, and I hope that we will have more as people will continue to register during the course of the week. Even so, I think we have a good group of girls.

As for me relaxing. . . I think I get to do that on Wednesday. or Thursday. :)
