Two at a Time

Can I just take a moment to say how utterly and completely disappointed I am that tomorrow is the Friday of Spring Break? How could it almost be over? How could I have spent so much time grading and still have so much left to do?

I'm taking a page from G's book and trying to stand more. It's short lived. When school starts up next week, I'll be a sitting machine until May. But that's OK because next semester will be different.

In between grading the sets of two-projects-at-a-time I've been doing productive things like washing the dust off my plastic house plants, doing endless loads of laundry, watching the 10+ inches of snow melt, trying to drink more water, ordering new silverware and a new bookshelf online, reading (for fun! But briefly!) and monitoring my lil teaching assistant.

She's doing so much better, by the way.

I think it's because she has reinforcements:

I gotta say, I'm usually all about Fridays. But not tomorrow.

Not tomorrow.
