What's up with Whatsit

I remembered how to number this time

1. We are taking the MCT2 this week. This stands for the Mississippi Curriculum Test, 2nd edition. We have a Reading section, a Writing section, and a Math section, which we spread out over tomorrow, Wednesday, and Thursday, but I can't remember which test is which day. We already took a Science test a couple of weeks ago. Evidently Social Studies has gone by the wayside. I remember when everybody jumped up and down due to History being dumbed down to Social Studies. I don't see any jumping now that it has totally gone away. It's just as well. Where I work they will do well to pass what we do have.

2. I donated blood today. This always gives me a good feeling. I heard one time that it's important to donate because they can't manufacture blood, which IS kind of obvious, but still. A technician told me one time that they use my type, O-negative, for newborn babies who get in trouble before they have had time to type their blood, since O-negative is the universal donor. That's why I feel guilty if I don't donate.'

3. I also went to the library. This is the PUBLIC library. I know I work in a school library, but going to the public library has always been one of my enjoyments. I bought a great big stack of books off the Book Sale Table for around $2. So there.

4. My air conditioning in my house is out. It is not hot outside yet, but it will be. Fortunately, we are getting by with our ceiling fans as of right now.

5. I didn't cook supper. I stopped and got a hamburger on the way to donate blood so my iron would be more likely to be up, so everybody else had to be on their own for supper. I keep a lot of stuff the kids can fix themselves for just such an occasion.
