Recently Hit with Dr.s and Dentists

One day off to see the dr.. to establish a new service.

We are switching to a Dr. group. It has about 35 Docs in the practice along with the other support folks.

We will get appointments with the dietitian. Sue with the pain specialist. I am following up with my breathing dr.

I just had my teeth cleaning and so did Sue. We established a patient realationship with a rheumatologist in Modesto.

Last week we got the chair back from the body shop. Sue is pretty happy with the work that he did. There was a lot of gusseting that had to be done to accommodate the new hardwood platform the the chair is mounted upon.

So we have been busy running around.

Classes have settled down and they are ready for their first tests of the new words in my construction oriented curriculum.

No one in my classes could related enamel to paint. A couple of the students recognized it as a dental word. Its been a pretty rocky start. Most students at the end of last year were certain that they would not have me on their schedule for this year. For some of them it was a misplacement when they discovered that they once again had "Mr. Brown." So finally we have all of the kids off that needed to be off and we can finally focus the climate of the class to cooperative learning.

And so it goes.. only a few more weeks and the first reportcards go out... or rather in. The are held hostage as the parents come in to get them and talk to the teachers about the basis for the grades.

Have a great week... : ) Pat
