Long Day

February 15th, 2011 at 05:13 am

It's the end of a very long teaching day. The good news is that with have to cope with the decreasing salary, at least the only money I spent all day was on coffee from (ugh) the machine at my evening class.

It's also been much warmer and melting here, so that lifts the spirits. I'm a little overwhelmed with how much I need to do to be caught up with my grading and housework, but I'm turning in and will face it all tomorrow.

DH brought a lovely bouquet of flowers home, so although it's been a long day, it hasn't been so bad.
It helped that my evening class was all on board with out discussion tonight, and several of them nominated me for an outstanding teacher award. Curiously, it was the students I find the most difficult.
Who knew they were actually getting it?

    Awww. Just remember, flowers from hubby and admiration from your students are both priceless!

    That's something I found too when I was teaching - sometimes the kids who end up appreciating you the most are the ones that are the toughest to reach.
