Just because I can.
Nov. 10th, 2005 01:27 pmI have a car today. Piet is home with Elizabeth because Oma had an all-day appointment to go to. So, for the first time all year, I have a car without having to go anywhere in particular during the day - no in-service, no appointment (at least, not during the school day) nothing.
So just as break began, I put on my coat, took orders from the two teachers in my pod (I didn't want to juggle everyone else's orders and cash and whatnot) and went over to Timmy's for a cup of steeped tea and a donut. I left the radio off, because silence is golden when you've been with kids all day long.
I went out to buy myself a snack for the first time all year - just because I can.
