I don’t believe in apologizing for not posting. I’ve come to realize that if I don’t have anything to write about, it’s better to just not write. That said, I do have some things I could be writing about, I just haven’t had a chance, for the following reasons:
- I’m trying to decide what to get my Secret Santa at work (I’m open to suggestions!)
- We were fighting with UPS trying to get them to deliver at a time when we’re actually home
- Most of my mental energy is being used to develop my Christmas cookie list for the year
- I had a grad school class yesterday afternoon, which pretty much killed my Wednesday
- My teaching is being observed today
- We spent Sunday driving to and from the other side of Massachusetts so we could pick up my car (and it’s new rear windshield!)
- Brian is getting over some sort of flu and I’m doing everything I can to avoid getting it myself
- I was discovering just how flat a frittata I could make (the answer: very)
- We bought ourselves a new toy and we’ve been trying to figure it out (more about that later!)
- I was monitoring the weather forecast to see if school was going to be cancelled today (it appears that the answer is no)
I remain optimistic that next week will be less busy than this one, and that I will get my actual post for tomorrow completed. Enjoy your Thursday!
Re bullet number one: An air cannon. Every teacher needs an air cannon to wake up sleepy students. You can get them from ThinkGeek and if a couple of nerdy t-shirts happen to fall into your shopping basket as well, well… Consider Christmas shopped!
That is a fabulous idea!
I didn’t know you were blogging again! Yay!
