Saturday

Dad arrives tomorrow night and still have a lot to do.
Not much to complain about, but could have been more organized and pushed myself a bit more.  Too many lazy days and extended "down time" between tasks- procrastination.
Finishing up common areas.
Will have to tackle the bedrooms at another time.

RAIN!
Finally.  A couple of hours of light rain, not enough for a good soak, but I think slow enough to do some good.  Maybe the grass will green-up a little.  Expecting a bit more later.  Hopefully, it will come through.

Turned in resignation and dropped off teacher materials at Freeport.
Administrators at some conference in Texas, so it was a bit easy.  I would think that the secretaries would have called Nick/ Brian, but perhaps not.  I was expecting a call, but over the past year I've learned not to expect much.

Over to Orangeville.
Everyone gone, so could not get any paperwork nor get questions answered.  Organized and assessed.  Considering they have been using a virtual teacher program, they actually have some decent useable materials, although not complete.
Met secretary and custodian.
At home, mapped out some Spanish 1 and some of 2,3,4.  Can not do much for art until I know what class(es).  I am assuming it is going to be a Fundamentals-type class.

In a bit of a rut over the whole thing- but I'll move on.
I'm glad to be out of Freeport, but Orangeville is not ideal.  I wish one of the closer districts responded, making Orangeville an interim thing, as I will continue to look for something closer.  Winter season is a concern.  I also have some concerns about being in a small and very rural district- will not have opportunities available in larger districts, will not integrate well (opportunities for community involvement- distance), and philosophies may be different (will my course expectations be too high).

Otherwise, OK.
