At least we are beginning today with some small semblance of normalcy. AND: It isn't raining. In fact, the sun is shining for the first morning in a week.
As I am technically going in on a voluntary basis since we'll have to make up these days at the end of the year, I won't be staying a full day. I could opt to stay home. After being stuck in this house all summer recovering from hip surgery and then for 4 days during the storm, staying home doesn't hold much appeal for me.
I will be able to get a lot of preparation and planning done today. That is the plus side of going in to the school. If all goes well around the county today, we may open for classes tomorrow. I dearly hope so.
I hope your day, wherever you are, will be a good one. What are your plans for this Tuesday?

Glad you can get out for a little bit and things are improving a lot. We are just going to the auction

I hope the sun keeps shining. We had about fifteen minutes of rain yesterday but the rest of the day was pretty sunny. When I took Harley out this morning it was only seventy four. So that was a nice change. I doubt it'll stay that cool all day..

@DWDavis it was cooler yesterday. I hope it's not too hot tonight when I go into work.

@thislittlepennyearns I am ready for some cooler temperatures. Looking forward to stepping out the door and feeling a cool breeze instead of warm muggy air.

I plan to finish tasks online and then get ready for eating out. I´m going to do some fitness moves in the afternoon too

I am glad to know that things are getting back to normal.
Our prayers are with people out there and hope things go well.
As a teacher I can fully understand that it is tough to make up for lost days at the end.

I can imagine you want to try to get back to life as usual. Sun is shining here but I don't think it is going to last. Not certain what the day holds..but at least it doesn't hold..going to the vet..something I was dreading beyond belief!

Normalcy helps the road to recovery more than anything, in my opinion. We're such creatures of habit that I think part of the emotional trauma of an event like that is the disruption of the routines, so re-establishing the routines says "it's getting better."
