I'm home for the weekend, but haven't had a chance to get caught up, yet. Karl was out hunting for used books (for his business as a reseller through Amazon.com), which he does in partnership with two of his sons. I spent the morning doing laundry, a load of dishes, and some mopping. I've also got a stack of homework papers and tests to grade that's about three inches thick, so much of this weekend I'll be spending grading. Ah, the life of a teacher. :/ But, I have to say that I'm just loving what I'm doing. Karl commented one night when he picked me up from work, that even while he worries about how little sleep my schedule allows me, he loves the way I come away from work smiling and energized.
Speaking of sleep, I'm going to go take a nap. I hope that once I've got my homework done, I'll have a chance to catch up on at least the last few days of everything that's been going on with all my friends. If there's something you especially want to share with me, please either send me an email (pdlloyd at gmail.com) or leave a note in the comments.
Love to all,
Pamela
ETA: My grading is finally done. Now, all I've got to do is write a make-up quiz for students who missed Quiz #1 (including some that are new), write Quiz #2, write the mid-term exam for Thursday (we're on a modular system, so my classes are only four weeks long), and prepare my lecture notes for the coming week.
This may seem like a lot of work (it certainly feels like it), but a lot of this is up-front work that will get smaller or go away, once I've got an established base. However, this means I won't have the time to do much catching up with my friends, which makes me sad. :(
