It's Sunday night, and I'm thinking I will join my boys - they are on their iPads and soon I will be reading, from a book or the kindle is at the moment undecided.
I've spent the last few hours doing various things for work: creating assessments, sorting photos, looking for resources, thanking people who have given resources, updating web pages, newsletters, and the sort. It was quite a productive few hours for someone who could write a manual on procrastination.
It was also a nice distraction. Curiosity got the best of me. Earlier today I read a well written article about teaching. Then I did some research. Turns out that nine years with the same employer and a master's degree leaves me making enough that I could qualify for state assistance. That was hard to swallow. I really just want to be supporting my family, and here is just that much more proof of how difficult it's getting to be.
And then there was the news that a high school classmate passed away today. He had been in battle with the H1N1 virus over the last week, and healthy and happy at Christmas. We continue to pray for his beautiful family, while we search for words that could be said during a time like this.
And now. Now it's time for another escape in a book to a land far far away.
