water-logged fields, no work





With 1.5 inches of rain yesterday, the boss called off work in the vegetable fields for today.  The boys were able to sleep late—until almost 9:00—and then they did a page of math practice before we went out to run/bike.  We ran to their day care center where they had left their books.  Then we ran to the high school track where I ran the quarter mile.  It was not a speedy time, but not a terribly slow time, either.  Then ran home—Maxim had to walk his bike because he had slid down a slide that had water at the bottom.  After I left him to change his clothes and Oskar to be cool, I went out and did my final sprint.  There was so much on my mind, I guess I didn’t run very quickly.

I was quite pleased.  With this time off, I will be able to run today so I don’t have to run tomorrow when we need to drive to Panora.  Not only would I have time to spend with the boys, but I would be able to get some sleep in preparation for the interview I have tomorrow morning.  I will be interviewed by a person in Moscow.  This person will determine if I am capable of successfully completing a course on teaching English to speakers of other languages.
