Brubeck, hang in there with the job search. It sounds like you have some promising leads. Keeping my fingers crossed for you.
The memory lapses are astounding aren't they? They are so wrapped up in themselves everything that doesn't directly relate to them seems to go right out the window. It could almost be funny, but then when you see it have an impact on the children and their lives, well, it's maddening.
Have fun tomorrow on the field trip with S8. It sounds like it'll be a fun adventure!
