Work is all but deserted today. It’s great because I’m actually getting things done. Not that I’m getting very far in my pile of stuff that needs doing - a shortage of work I have not. At least nothing is being added to the pile today.

Sarah shoud be nearly done with her test about now. She is taking the essay test portion for her National Board Certification. She’s a little nervous, but I know she will do just fine.

Meanwhile, she also a bit nervous because the union president is picking a fight with the school board. At this point it looks like there are going to enter the school year without a contract. One of the things the school board wants to do is change our health care from Blue Cross to an HMO. I don’t think so. HMOs suck. I see it almost daily here at work with people fighting to get basic things taken care of; like my coworker Tony who ripped up his ACL. The HMO just wanted him to go to physical therapy. Nice.

OK, back to getting that work done.
