What's new...

I will be a part-time (adjunct) instructor for Western Oklahoma State College (WOSC) for this Fall. I will be teaching 2 biology, 1 anatomy, and 1 medical terminology class. This will be on Tues. and Thurs. The med terminology class is online so I guess that is almost a daily thing with checking messages and opening/closing assignments and grading.
I got a call from the public library and they offered me a teaching job for adult education classes. It focuses on reading, writing, and arithmetic. I am supposed to meet with the supervisor and another instructor either today or tomorrow. Then I will decide if I want to do that. It is only part-time so I could teach at WOSC and for the library if I wanted to.
Well, what else is new? We have to get our A/C unit replaced. It will be done next week. The unit is rusted out on the bottom and leaking bad, which I guess it had been for a while but we didn't know. Also there are several things that are not "up to code" and will be fixed.
Brian's classes start next week and he's looking forward to it. Mine will start the day after his.
Brian's dad, Alan, was diagnosed with diabetes a few weeks ago. So he is on two types of medicines now. He has been doing well with trying to eat better and exercise more. I'm really glad he went to the doctor because Brian and I had been trying to get him to for at least a year now. We are trying to eat better as well. Actually I don't know if I'm more worried than Brian but I don't want either of us to get diabetes since it is both our families. Brian's BMI shows that he's overweight. He needs to lose about 30 pounds to be at a good BMI. I want us to join a gym together but Brian is dragging his feet. In another week I think I will just join by myself.
Well, I know I'm rambling on so I'll stop now.

We hope classes go well for you and Brian. I battle with your big brother all the time about seeing a doctor so don't feel alone on that one:)And I'm sure you already now that when it comes to having a house there's always something needing to be done.Good luck with work and the house projects.
