It just felt good...

interacting with students again, MY OWN students, not merely ones "borrowed" for the day. I've always said its wasn't the same and it was not.  That is more obvious, now, than ever before.

Still, the first day does not tell the tale; it's the second day.

No significant problems today and I even let them pick their own seats. Tomorrow will tell me more.

Siri took me on an errant "adventure " this morning.  I asked her to guide me to the nearest post office. She sent me over to "Howey in the Hills." There is a post office not far from the school, in Clermont . Should have specified "post office in Clermont;" live and learn?

Well, I didn't.  Next, rather than going to my Waze ap, where I have Clermont middle school saved, I opted to ask Siri to guide me to "Clermont middle school."  Siri spelled that "Claremont" and was sending me on some incredible journey; I was in Eustis, 41 miles away before I realized what was happening. Barely made it back in time to assume my morning duty.
Geeessssshhhhhhh....
