Good morning!
Oh, thank you, BookSaver. Yes, Fay is a happy chick today. Her new sisters are scared of the door to their ramp (lifts upward rather loudly) and so she hung back with them until they were ready to trust it. Such a funny, since she has always torn down the ramp like a race car.
Our only concession to the holiday is that dd is wearing my Taz (Tazmanian Devil) sweatshirt, just in case anyone teases that she should have worn something for the day. I doubt that we will have any trick-or-treaters and sort of doubt that she will want to go - we'll see.
She has a meeting with a teacher today that she dreads. She has about half good news and half bad news on the requests the teacher made of her and says this teacher only notices negative things (which dd may deserve today), but when she gets past that she'll be okay. I replenished her lunch account, which went negative on her the other day!
One happy piece of news is that she achieved a "100" average in English the first quarter, highest in the class. She is still immature enough to show extreme favoritism to the class/teacher she likes, I think, and I need to work with her on keeping each class equally at the forefront. Maybe I need to suggest our village idea and have a nightly "Round Robin" of 15s through all her classes' notebooks/assignments to be sure nothing is slipping through the cracks. She does agree with me when I remind her that, "We can do anything for 15 minutes." (P and P) and she likes Round Robins in general.
I've already raced out to the pharmacy to pick up the prescription that needed getting a day or two ago. Sigh. Morning Daily Card is finished. Desk Day for our household is Next Up.
