Wednesday: this and that

 I stubbed my little toe this morning.  It is still a bit sore.  It doesn't really hurt, but I still notice it.

One of Joshua's lessons at school today was that somethings you have to give away things even if it's hard.  Then he asked, "Do I have to give away Grey Bear?"  I responded with a probably not, but there might be some circumstances where it would be the best thing to do.  Tears were threatening so I said (hopefully) comforting things like 'we'd try to give a different stuffed animal first' and 'I don't really see any circumstances where we'd actually have to give away Grey Bear.'  Grey Bear got some hugs and I think Joshua calmed down.

I also wanted to show my karate partner.  He really likes to come and lay on the mat during my class.  It's sometimes a small problem, but mostly fun.  He's pretty consistent and will come back multiple times if I accidently scare him away in the middle.

Oh!  All my grades were finally put in today.  (Which is good, because they were due today.  You get a 'nasty' email if you don't get them in on time.)  I will try to get a head start on the fall semester so I don't have to do it during everyone's summer vacation, but I really only need to get a minimum of stuff ready.  I won't be hard.
