Congratulations Justin

Rather than eating out in a restaurant to celebrate Justin’s new job, Supervising Construction Inspector 4 for the City of Sacramento, everyone came to my house for dinner.

After dinner, we played Ravine.

As Uncle Justin prepared for a thumb-wrestling contest with the player on his right, he had to sing everything he wanted to say to Sophia. It’s a terrible thing when you draw a Madness card.


ELPAC testing

This was Monday. Group testing second graders in writing.

By Wednesday, after testing a couple of kids with questionable symptoms (“social distance” of less than 12 inches), and listening to the daily-worsening news, I decided NOT to continue testing. Too risky.

Heritage Park Safety Fair

I represented Jibe at this event. Heritage Park is a 55+ gated community with 965 homes (twice as big as my 55+ community).

It took place in the ballroom. About 30 vendors were there.

The crowd is about to arrive.

Surprise: Leslie Weisgerber was there helping her daughter-in-law Alexandra who works for the Alzheimer’s Association.

TGIF

At Four Seasons Lodge tonight. I worked with Steve and Teresita:

Our theme was Little Irish Pub. Steve shared some interesting information about St Patrick’s Day and I made a LOT of Scotch Eggs.

We had a really good turnout. And I didn’t have to take ANY eggs home. Whew!

I was so happy Ade drove out to join in.

ELPAC testing

Another week at Del Paso Elementary. The testing is still slow but is moving along smoothly. By Friday, second grade was done and we’d started first grade.

Just your average sixth grader waiting to go in the library:

When madness sets in

In the game Ravine, if it’s time for a health check and you only have one heart, you must draw a Madness card. You might have to hug and not let go of the person on your right until someone else (me) helps you out (right after I take a picture).

Or have a thumb wrestling contest. The loser loses one heart.
