A few weeks ago, I went to my parents' and spent the night. This wasn't a get away from Scott sleepover...it was a help Mom clean house which quickly turned into a paint the dining room visit. I don't have a picture to show, but the nieces and I suggested a bright yellow as a serious change from the white, scuff marked walls, and Mom agreed to it. I heard mention of Dad and Mom painting the wood trim white but that hasn't happened yet, so it might just be a rumor.
A new course at Brown Mackie started last week. I am teaching a Professional Development course and a Sociology Independent Study course. So far, things are going well. Students seem to be understanding the module system pretty well which gives me time to work with individual students while the class as a whole works independently. I guess the downside to the course setup is that with so many smaller tasks in each module I am grading an extra 2-4 hours each day to stay caught up. Thankfully, the projects are one page or less else with 40 students I would never be caught up!
Softball season is coming to an end but bowling season is about to begin! I've decided to just be the sub bowler instead of full time this season.
The big thing on the brain is the job search. Unfortunately, the search is slow and I didn't get hired into a school system. There are a couple big feelers out so hopefully one of them will pan out. Otherwise I may have to consider babysitting for extra income! :) Stay tuned!
