Today was first day of classes. So, I went in early for introductions and to support the new GTAs. I am glad I did because along with providing support, I got a lot of freebies like a car charger, tire pressure gauge, and.....and this is one of the best parts... a department secretary had just given up a school pennant! (Mostly, because I gave my best puppy-dog eyes and said she was going to give me it or find me one because (and I showed her my collection) i told her it was one i did not already have for my pennant wall!)
It was nice to feel loved...lol or threatening...not sure which. (but she is a tough cookie and knows how to say no....) So, it's backed to feeling loved

My younger nephew playing in my car. He's very methodical. (part of his autism)
Pop the hood and check the engine. Get inside and open every window and the moon roof. Put on Baby Shark or Star Wars soundtrack. Dance with his head out the roof. Sit in the passenger seat and have me buckle him in. Unbuckle himself. Get in the back. Sit in all three seats. Buckle into one, unbuckle. Slide to the right. Buckle, unbuckle. Slide to the right. Buckle, unbuckle. Get in the driver seat. Buckle up. Pretend to drive. Repeat. He did do something new with me today though. I let him sit in the back belted in (I didn't have his car seat in the car right then) but I backed down the driveway and drove back up a few times and he thought that was the best ever. |

Yesterdays joys:
Happy messages from my cousin's daughter. She left for college on Monday and has been having a very teary hard time. I sent her a case of hot sauce to make the food taste better (She's a hot sauce junkie) She received it yesterday and it made her so happy. It's the little things. Taking elder nephew shopping for back to school supplies, and then to the pet store to look at Guinea pigs and Tarantulas and then getting ice cream. Bringing home a coloring book for younger nephew and having him snuggle on my lap to color. Having a lengthy discussion with elder nephew, while listening to Flogging Molly, about all of the reasons he still has to learn math even though his career goal is to be a spy and he thinks spies don't use math. |

I got to hold a three day old baby Llama and help get her into her night time coats. That was so sweet.

I looked over and Loki is in his tree, dreaming. He's wound up tight in a circle and the tip of his tail and his paws are just twitching like crazy. Next to him is Gracie, snuggled on her pillow in her chair next to him. I love my little critters and I am so happy that Loki's feeling better. He's been so miserable this past month, dealing with his bladder issues. Me too, because I had to clean up after him repeatedly but I wasn't the one in pain. Gracie too, because he's been awful to her. They tussle all the time and it's usually in good fun but he's been really mean and rough a few times.
Luckily, things seem to be calming down. Today he went in the corner box that he's been avoiding since the start of his illness. Yay! It's a sign that the new food is working and he's getting better. Next up is another urinalysis in a couple of weeks to see how far he's progressed. Soon, we can put this past us and get him on a food that won't cause issues with his giant, but very delicate, bladder.

Big combination birthday party I threw for my mother, my sister in law, and my younger nephew.
My mom happy cried twice. First when she found out my daughter and I had a plan for her to sneak in from college for the day to surprise her. Second when she saw I had arranged a sponsorship for a baby Llama in her name. She can go see him at the farm whenever she wants and her sponsorship will help to provide his food and care for this year. She helped him get his dinner tonight. Before she knew about the sponsorship, we took a Llama walk with 10 Llamas and he was the baby on the walk. I kept encouraging her to take a turn walking him and then after the walk she opened her gift showing that she is now a sponsor/extra mama to this Llama. My nephews were enthralled as we took a walk with the Llamas. Younger nephew ran Llama to Llama trying them all out. Elder was privileged to be of age to be allowed to walk one on his own. He did a great job. He mostly walked the Mama Llama to the baby Llama that I sponsored for my mom. So sweet. |

Figuring out a way to get shiny new black kitchen appliances back to shiny again after using them. All the kitchen appliances both major and minor are black, and I love the look but they show every little speck of everything. However I spent the morning working on them until I got a system down pat. Now they positively sparkle, shine so much.
 I never thought I would be this happy as the result of cleaning kitchen appliances. I don't know, maybe it was the joy involved in not being asked or ordered to do it.

At the conference today, it was great seeing a lot of the old group of Teaching Assistants and School Psychs out in their internship year.
I also contacted a few sites, and one reached out immediately. I'll be sending my resume and meet with them next week sometime. They also pay very well and have tuition reimbursement. Student loans will be paid off in no time!
