So yesterday was a lot less exciting than the weekend.  Classes were fairly uneventful.  I gave a chapter test in Basic English, and I had a group presentation scheduled in Comp.  So I had a light day!  Mom and I even made it home for lunch about the same time so we had 45 whole minutes to chat yesterday…that’s just craziness!

Other than classes, I graded like a mad person yesterday.  Mid-term grade reports were due (actually today, but I needed to do them yesterday before I left), so I was trying to get some of the grades recorded to help some of the students if I could.  Mid-term reports are warnings that students are not doing well in class, and they are sent to advisors and deans who then are supposed to call the children in and start working with them.  I have a larger than usual number of low students, but it’s pretty much their own fault.  And the grading rush I did actually did get one of them off the list before I submitted them!

Anyway, I just got in a grading mood, I guess, so I spent most of the evening working on that as well.  I did make dinner (meatloaf, baked seasoned potatoes, and veggies), but then we both did our own thing last night (Eric on the computer, me grading).  Such fun! I also worked on laundry which I need to finish today.  And I have a few errands to run as well.  But I really do want to get most/all of my grading caught up before we leave this weekend, so that will be a primary focus!

  1. I know what you mean…they look younger every day. And they act sillier. Surely I wasn’t that naive and immature at age 19, was I?

  2. The bain of being a writing teacher…reading all that writing.

    I know you are, like, 30, and stuff, but are you really allowed to call college students children?

  3. Grade, grade, grade! Here’s to hoping you get it all done before you leave this weekend! We wouldn’t want you thinking about that instead of the important things!!

  4. ^^ Kyle would be disgusted and would complain that the clothes smelled moldy for the rest of his life.  He’s annoying like that.

    The situation has been remedied.  Thank you for noticing my oversight.

  5. I don’t need any meatloaf, thanks.

    I washed a load of clothes on Sunday. They’re still sitting in my washer. I’m thinking I should rerun them…

  6. Where are you going this weekend?

    Do you have meatloaf a lot?  It seems like you just had it.  I’ve really been wanting some lately, so if you want to bring some of it this way, feel free!
