Howdy, welcome to the end of the term.

Too much work due tomorrow, and this week in general.

I had lunch with a new friend, but haven't been able to get much done since we've gotten home. B seems to think it's my job to play with him, and well, it is, so there you have it.

Trying not to stress about it and just rest. The cold I have isn't getting any better. Not sure it's getting worse, either. It's nothing as dreadful as the bug I had in December, but it's no fun being congested, either.

I'm still trying to pull together an "engaging phenomenon" video (free of copyright infringement with accompanying supportive mateiral), write a paper (case study on english language learner), finish a portfolio on literacy interventions in the classroom (with examples of student work), import video of myself teaching, edit it, write a paper to go with that including lesson plans, reflections, samples of student work, etc. Then document all of my parent contacts for the last 11 weeks, and try to sort out how much of the instruction I delivered this termhas been inquiry based. Uh, yeah. I just may have to be "sick" a couple of days this week to get everything done.

Cough, cough. Sniff, sniff. Are you convinced?
