I Am on VACATION!!!!!

I have reprinted the grade sheets that were accidentally printed onto scratch paper (read half used already) last night/this morning and shredded the useless ones. I have written up questions and a study guide for the exam my students take next week. I have written up some ideas for my teaching partner about what else we want them to do next week. Now I just need to take the office stuff in to my office to leave there over the break. (Query: Should my laptop go to the office or stay with me on the trip to Boise. Will I use it? Hmmm...)

But for the next eight days, I have no teaching responsibilities aside from checking my email daily to be sure no one's imploded while we're on break (major group presentations and an exam coming up next week; people might freak out at some point). And tomorrow I leave for three days and four nights in Boise to spoil my nephew rotten and remind him that I exist.

Next on the agenda: art supplies, to spend the evening arting, I think, and then pack. Oh. And wrap Christmas presents. (What. I got them in London and started teaching almost immediately after we came back. I haven't had time to do anything non-school related, much less go to the post office. So I'll just wrap 'em, stick 'em in my suitcase and take 'em along tomorrow.)

I say art supplies because all of my final class sessions of the week last week were art days. One of my students brought these awesome acrylic gel mediums to class and now I must have some. I don't know what I'll use them for, but I'm sure I will think of something.
