My wife handed out over

My wife handed out over 80 packages of candy (she found little Halloween bags from the dollar store, filled them with candy, and sealed them — it made distributing the candy much easier given the crowds of children, parents, teenagers, etc.). When those ran out, she started opening the large bags of candy from Sam’s [...]

I delayed the assignment due

I delayed the assignment due date by a day for those students who have had difficulty posting. Although I have to wonder — even if blogger was down last night, they had an entire week to post.
