Extreme Energy Conservation...

Olivia's first day of classes was yesterday. She has moved to Trailer 3, which means she will be away from noisy hallways (for the most part.)  The only wrench thrown into the works was the lack of power to the trailer all day yesterday and part of the day today, most likely due to the heavy thunderstorm in Vicksburg last Saturday night.  

In a cheap attempt to decorate the classroom, Olivia stapled some fabric to the walls last week.  She wonders if her mother will be ashamed or if she will consider her efforts refreshingly creative.
