The weekend was fun.\u00a0 I actually started my Saturday by working on one of my finals assignments: creating a health binder.\u00a0 I had assumed that all I would be doing is filling a binder with all the stuff we received throughout the class module.\u00a0 I was wrong.\u00a0 The binder is like some sort of scholastic scavenger hunt.\u00a0 Some of the pieces need to come from the district\/county offices; some need to come from health places like Kaiser.\u00a0 A lot of the stuff in the binder needs to be pulled off the web, formatted and printed.\u00a0 Alas, I discovered this morning that my printer is no longer dispensing blue.\u00a0 Despite several cleanings and even a cartridge replacement, it looks like the printer is broken.\u00a0 Well\u2026 that slowed me down by about an hour.\u00a0 I\u2019ll have a lot to do on Monday.<\/p>\n
Just before noon, Barb and I took the Porsche out to a teacher event down in Gilroy: a wine tour.\u00a0 Fifteen teachers and their spouses toured Gilroy\u2019s wine trail (gee, up until today, I didn\u2019t even know Gilroy had wines).\u00a0 Many of the wines were spectacular, as were their prices.\u00a0 Now, none of the wineries have the look of say Napa or Sonoma, but I guess they were at least functional.\u00a0 Mostly, they were of the mom & pop variety.\u00a0 I finally bought some bottles from the last winery of the day, from the last glass of the day \u2013 a dessert wine that tasted like chocolate, coffee and orange.\u00a0 When we got to the vice principal\u2019s house to watch the Giant\u2019s game, we popped open a bottle of this stuff and had it with brownies and ice cream.\u00a0 Delicious!<\/p>\n
Sunday after church, we cleared the sanctuary, putting all the band equipment in the back closet.\u00a0 All this week, we\u2019re having the carpets replaced.\u00a0 On Friday, Bery and I will have to put everything back.\u00a0 It usually takes three hours or so.\u00a0 When we got home from church, rather than watch football, or the final game of the World Series (Giants Win!), the kids and I played Minecraft until bedtime.\u00a0 At one point, Courtney had adopted some dogs.\u00a0 Jeffrey came along and set them on fire.\u00a0 It was hilarious to watch these dogs running around on fire with Courtney absolutely horrified.\u00a0 It brought me back to my childhood where I used to hang and decapitate my sister\u2019s dolls.\u00a0 I thought it was funny, but my sisters were scarred for life.<\/p>\n
