Busy?
I don't know 'bout y'all, but I have been crazy busy lately. By Monday night I was ready for the weekend. So, I'm wondering - what're the top five things that are keeping you busy right now?
1. Suddenly managing 60 student workers 2. Getting through the first week of classes at Northwestern 3. recovering a chair 4. Trying to get my house somewhat clean before my much belated bd party tonight 5. Trying to fit in some sleep. I'm tired...
1. Student Teaching 2. Home work for student teaching 3. Getting the baby's nursery ready 4. Uncluttering the rest of the house 5. Getting enough rest for baby
This list now annoys me because I'm thinking of the top five things I didn't finish this weekend but meant to: 1. Finish recovering chair 2. Replant my blue indigo in garden 3. Get or give self pedicure 4. Clean basement 5. Go swimming
Much like the characters in Hornsby's High Fidelity I think what you like says a lot about you.
