I can finally start to feel SOME things calming down. I still have loads to do, but I feel like the end is in sight:
1. Thesis is due tonight!!! Can’t wait to cross that one off my list.
2. 10 page papers are all graded. I stayed up until midnight so I could get them accomplished. I would be more excited, but another plagiarizer in the bunch. He says to me, “Yah I probably should have cited more.” OR, done your own damn work.
3. Wedding thank yous. All that is left is to address the envelopes and buy a few more stamps. I will be so glad not having that hanging over my head.
4. I got a new job, so no more searching!
5. Even the house, though there is still much to be unpacked, feels manageable. I got a lot done last night, now just need to keep picking away at all the crap in the garage.
6. When I think about the grading left to do, I still get a little twitchy, but with less than two weeks left of seniors (who make up about 90% of my classes), I feel like I can make it.
There’s still a lot to do, but I’ve accomplished more than I would have ever in a million years thought possible at this time last year. It’s a good feeling.
