The new graduate student’s Bootcamp is done, and now I “just” have to grade my 28 internship students, which means their journals and papers to read, and their overall participation in the online course to assess.
Next week I’m doing a “Staycation”. On Monday, I have an eye doctor appointment, and I want to take the car in, and drop off all the empty cat litter buckets that have been accumulating in the basement at the rigid plastics recycle place, and then I have a meeting. Tuesday is my actual birthday, and we’re going to Chicago for baseball, and planning to stop at the State Fair on the way back on Weds. And it’s like go week for getting E. Wash ready to sell. Thursday I have a zipcar SUV, to move the last of my stuff out.
But I can take it easy, at least for now. I read all my students’ 60-hour journals, and checked them off for the last reading assignment. I made pasta with pesto and roasted sun golds and focaccia garlic toast for dinner. And we watched the third hobbit movie.
