The weekend! Oh how lovely is a weekend.

I have discovered the real value of working is to highlight the wonder and delight of Friday night and all day Saturday and Sunday. Not that we actually DO anything with that time. It's just that it is OUR time to do with as we please.

Of course this usually entails writing lesson plans and correcting homework. But is is OUR CHOICE to do that... isn't it?

My car is dead... or severely injured. It died a couple of times on the road and now will not start at all. It was acting as though it wasn't getting enough fuel. I changed out the filters but that did not help. I don't know what to do. The shop cannot figure it out. It has been there a couple of times. Sigh.

On the up side a friend of ours has a pickup for sale. It's a 2000 Ranger 4 wheel drive extended cab. It was a company truck for an archaeological company here on the island and they don't need it anymore. Wakana and I are going to the credit union later to arrange a loan.
