Yay, Friday!

There's been a PoAC brewing for some days now, but it isn't going to happen this evening. I simply do not have the mental energy.

I'm really looking forward to gaming this evening, after the long drought. Truly, I love Christmas, I love doing things at Christmas, but this is one part of the regular routine that I really, really miss. With any luck, [livejournal.com profile] etherlad has been missing it too, and therefore has some extra-special stuff planned for us to tackle.

About six of my kids were away today. Three are Orthodox, so I wasn't expecting them. The other three are either sick or staying home because they thought it would be a no-work day due to Orthodox Christmas.

My plans for Monday are ready except for two subjects. Sad to say, one of those is French. Without the speeches unit, I'm at loose ends for that. I think I might - oh, horror of horrors! - use a published unit for a few weeks. If nothing else, it gives me a break. The problem is, this unit hasn't been used in so long that I can't find the actual manual for it. I have all the photocopiable resources and student books, but no manual!

I just realized I forgot to get the CD for Smart Ideas from the LRT before leaving school. I guess I'm typing up that note the old-fashioned way - in Word. I'll transfer it to SI on Monday.

I'm going downstairs to watch Veggietales, at the request of a certain little lady who is actually asking for "cedu". I'm getting very tired of Veggietales, but hey - it keeps her busy.
