Happy Tuesday!

I just got up a few minutes ago.  Eric is still in bed.  He said last night that his nose had been running less, but his throat was hurting a bit more.  He got up a couple of hours ago to take Advil and then came back to bed.  I think he’ll be going in late today or maybe taking the day off.  We’ll see when he gets up!

Classes are now over.  I always reach a point at the end of the semester where it is time for each class to move on, and I had definitely gotten there yesterday.  On the other hand, it was so nice to be able to just come home last night instead of driving to UD. We didn’t do very much, of course, but it’s much more fun to do nothing at home with Eric than in class in Dayton!

I brought home 5 portfolios to read today.  I have learned that if I just force myself to start reading a few per day, I’ll be done by Friday with no problem.  I’ve also figured out that if I read them in order from (what I expect to be) worst to best, then by the end of the week, when I’m tired of grading, I only have good ones left to consider. 

I also hope to get a haircut and run some errands today, but I think I’ll plan to do that in the afternoon.  Maybe if I grade in the morning, I’ll be more likely to actually do it!  We shall see…
