Today was a very good day. It's the first day that I worked with all things in my room in their right places. I love how my room makes me feel :) Can't wait to decorate it. It cracks me up thinking about a remark I made to Jombit and Bing when they were at my door, looking at me - "Do you have an appointment to look at me?"
We got mass approval for our teachers for the NYCPS!! I can't believe it at first but consider this ... 73 approvals all dated September 1 and 2!! The power of politics! I thought that made my day. But no, we had a Friday thing going today and for the first time, it was held at our house!! I was so frustrated that the mower failed us again. Grrrrr .... Anyway, I cooked pata and it was perfect. Susan brought pansit, Bing brought fish and tahong na may sabaw, and Gin brought our dessert, black forest cake. Aside from the complementing food, it was such a nice get together. No odd man out. Walang kontrabida. Louie and Bing are a revelation to me. This was the first time that I really got to talk to them. I felt their sincerity and I so liked how Bing reacted to the changes that I made to their former house. But I know I neglected the lawn and backyard and I am beyond embarassed ** sigh** :(
Everybody enjoyed everybody's anecdote. We did a lot of "discussion". And we promised to do a chapter 2 next week!
Yes, today was a good day. A very good one! But it does not take away the guilt I feel seeing how the victims of Katrina are trying to cope. The magnitude of the damage unfolding on television increases by the day. Makes me think - "Is this America?"
