Long Overdue Conversation with an Ol' Friend...from the Bridgeport Public School Collaborations to a Colleague on Campus. Great to Catch Up

Abu and I met Yolehema out at Cibus. Great meal and wonderful company after a day of running errands for the conference on Friday and finalizing the program and presentations. We also watched a few soccer games, volleyball matches, and even handball. Well, I listened from the other room as I wrote on my laptop. Managed a walk, too, in between all the rain (and colder temperatures).

Today we do book runs, stuff bags, set up, and then wait for what will come Friday. We'll see, given the weather. It's been a bit wonky and my experience with large teacher events in Connecticut is that they rarely show. Ah, but it's paid for and we'll make it what we'll make it. It will be worthwhile for all who show.

Also glad to welcome Dave back tonight, who will be presenting on Friday before he heads off to a Mets game. Looking forward to having a CWP bonanza.

My new goal, too, is to get a recording of Karal and Abu in conversation, especially when she tires to block him from watching t.v. - she gives him lip like Juliette used to do...always having to have the last word.

Okay, better get offline sooner than later so I can accomplish all that needs to be done on the road today (set up is part of the heavier lift, but if it is done right, it makes for a lighter load at the actual event). 

Cheers. Still celebrating last night's meal with Yolehema. So So good.
