I finished working at the school I was at when I heard my brother passed away. It is a 5 hour drive from my house so it wasn't easy to go up there. I was glad I could finish this school so quickly in the new year. I really like this school, Etna High School, because the kids are very smart and the staff and faculty is very kind to me. Today I worked with the principal and it was nice that he spent the time to find out what his students were doing.
On my drive back today I got drowsy so I had to stop more often than I usually do. I also got very bored even though I was listening to my audio book, Split Second by Catherine Coulter. When I usually listen to an audio book time goes by faster. Maybe this book just wasn't something I am very interested in. I have 2 more waiting to listen to and I hope those interest me more. I didn't have my camera with me this trip and maybe that is why I didn't like the drive so much.
When I have my camera with me I feel like I am sharing my drive with other people. Today I took some pictures with my phone, which I don't often do. I feel better when I take pictures with my camera rather than phone. The phone pictures were ok, but not as much fun to take as the camera. I have many pictures from this drive because I have done it a few times in the past couple of years. It is a beautiful drive and I usually enjoy it. I didn't enjoy it today.
I had other reasons that I didn't enjoy today and had other things on my mind. I wish someone was at home when I got here, but that hasn't happened yet. When I got home I went to the gym because I realize it is a problem when I don't do that. I go on a cruise in exactly a week. I have started to lift weights to build up my upper body strength and I wish I had started to go to a tanning salon so I don't get bright red on the first few days of the cruise, which is what happened when I went to Hawaii!
