We have completed the standardized tests and I look forward to a normal four days of school next week. Giving the tests went fairly smooth for me. All the schedule changes and other problems of that type during the week was difficult for me. I like the status quo and I think the kids are happier when they have a set schedule.
There have evidently been some sandstorms in the Sahara Desert lately. The very fine sand gets drawn up high in the air and then the air flow from east to west brings it over us and out into the Atlantic. We have had dusty skies all of this past week. That also means that I have dusty floors, tables, counters, etc. in my apartment. My eyes are sore and tired from the dust too. I even made up an [Old Bamako Saying] for you. If you don't go to Timbuctu then Timbuctu will come to you! Since I chose not to go to Timbuctu I thought that was an appropriate saying.
