Not Gone, Just Out of Town

 Wednesday I got a text asking me to

bounce down to Ft. Lauderdale

and teach a 4-day class!

I haven't taught a LIVE class since

July 2021 when I covered at the

same location.

I spent the rest of the afternoon

making all the necessary arrangements

and then taught my evening zoom.

Thursday I got packed, headed to the Town

for a couple of hours and then borrowed

Rod's fancy new truck and headed south.

It was a good drive.

Stopped in Delray Beach to meet the other

instructor, get the keys and some encouragement.

And then on to Margate.

I'm staying in a nice Hampton Inn.

There aren't a lot of restaurants right close by.

And I don't really want to be surrounded

by MORE people and noise...

so the first night I stopped at Publix

and bought some deli mac & cheese.

Last night I stopped at a chinese food place

in the same shopping complex and got some

orange chicken and fried rice,

(half is still in my fridge for Sunday night...).

Tonight I stopped at the SAME plaza and got

a subway sandwich.

I bought a couple of salads to take for

lunches and a box of frozen

ham, egg, cheese biscuits to heat up for

breakfast in my room.

Not going fancy this time around.

It's coming back. I noticed a couple of things

I forgot... but they aren't huge and the students

don't know ANYTHING, so they don't know

that I missed a couple of things.

They seem to be happy and enjoying the

class as much as you can enjoy

4 straight days of 10 hours each

on the subject of life insurance.

I have two more days.

And then Tuesday morning I'll get up and

head back north and straight into the Town.

And then, I might just go to bed for a week.

(Except I have to teach the morning class

on Wednesday.....)

I do kind of miss live class.

But there ARE advantages to zoom.

But this is fun.
