Okay,
Out of all the things on my to-do list for my 10 day break, here are the things I didn’t finish:
School:
- Teaching project assignments - did 2, 1 left.
- Teaching portfolio assignments - all 4 left.
Personal:
- Set up Hawaii trip
- Set up trip for IJA Festival / visit with Mom
That means out of 20 items on my list I finished rougly 16.7 of them. Of course, I finished off almost everything on my list that wasn’t homework (even 4 visits to the gym) - and I only got maybe 2/3 of the homework part done. But, that seems pretty much inevitable given how much I needed some kind of break from doing nothing but school.
Anyway, my apartment is more liveable now, I’ve rested a bit, and while the rest of the school year isn’t going to be a cruise, I can at least see my way clear to passing. Also, this week is testing week at school, which means a couple of really short and easy school days. Plus, my math methods class is not meeting this week. So, I think I can catch up some more by the end of next week.
The important part is, I now feel like I’m treading water instead of sinking.
It’s been a good break.
