911 - Marley's first ER trip

My goal last night was to blog out about my first day of iPadpaloozaIN. I learned about augmented reality (mind blowing people), beneficial usage of my classroom green screen, and ways to display/interpret my data for myself, students, and parents. I came home, planned out my night and then...well life happens. My daughter has been fighting a fever for days. Last night she started to develop other symptoms that scared us. We called her doctor and he told us to go straight to the ER. Taking your child to the ER is probably the hardest thing I've ever had to do. I totally cried with her during her IV and CT scan. Needless to say all of her results came back normal and we were sent home.

So, yesterday, I drove 2 hours to iPadpaloozaIN, spent the day at seminars, drove back home, played softball, then was at the ER until midnight. Our night wasn't done; we got home from the ER for her to be worked up, as well as, on a relaxer that made her silly. We didn't finally get to bed until around 2. My night wasn't over LOL Gabriel woke at 3:30 to eat.....the life of a mom. So at 6:30 Gabriel woke again to eat and I got up to start my day. 

My wonderful husband wanted me to go back to iPadpaloozaIN because he knew I've been looking forward to this conference. He also knew Tuesday had some seminars I was really looking forward to. So at 7:15 my mom came to the rescue by coming to the house to watch Marley, Aaron took Gabriel to child care, and I went to Starbucks for some strong caffeine. After all that I hit the road, drove 2 hours, and now I'm sitting in Kristin Ziemkes seminar. Let's start this second day at iPadpaloozaIN!
