Josh got back into school after Labor Day. I'm sure he was glad it was a short week. By the end of the first week he'd adjusted his bedtime on his own. Those summer nights where he'd read until midnight just didn't coincide with getting up at 6:15 a.m. Now we see him mosey off to bed a little before 10 pm.. and if there's something on TV he wants to see, he records it for the weekend.
He's been great about coming home and getting his homework done; he manages his time very well. He enjoys the autonomy he has with his own wheels and loves being able to drive himself to school. It's 20 miles each way, so he's getting lots of good on-the-road experience. He's on the road by 7 a.m. each morning, so he's getting it in rush hour traffic.
He's felt a little out of sorts the last couple of weeks. We thought he had a bug, then a cold, now we're back to the bug hypothesis. The BMT clinic said there's a three-week virus making the rounds. He's missed school all this week and has developed a cough. No fever, though, so we're just monitoring it and he's resting at home and getting his homework via email.
