a first for everything...

Yes, it's true, there is a first for everything, but I didn't think my first speeding ticket would be in town, on my first day at a new job, as I worked on my mental check-list. Alas, so it was. The very unfamiliar blue lights in my rearview mirror brought me back to reality in a hurry;) Thank the Lord that he was a nice officer. I've always had this fear, that if ever I was pulled over, I'd get some grumpy officer. He was so kind, but, wahhh, he didn't let me off. Oh well...it will teach me not to try to figure out my life and its chaos while driving through town. It was funny--when he came to my window, he leaned over and said.."do you have your license?" The way he said sure sounded like he thought I wouldn't have one. I can't still look 15, can I?
His words of wisdom for me as he walked away were..."Do me a favor, and pay more attention, k?" Check:)

This morning, on my way to day 2 at HSLDA, I was comforted to observe not one, not two, but three cars pulled over for speeding on about a five-mile strech of interstate. See, I'm not the only one.

Anyhow, life goes on. I'm finished with my nanny job. It's really hard to believe. The time went by slowly at times, and then at the end seemed to fly by.
HSLDA is busy as usual. It's amazing how much of the job I remember. It does make the transition easier.

I have to keep this short for now. But I wanted to stop by and at least say, "hi"
