* Well, I accomplished what I set out to do this last Term, with an A in Comp II. I ended up with an A- in Anatomy and Physiology, which was pretty pleasing, everything considered. Yesterday's party went well. It was a lot less stressful on me than those events typically are-likely because it was a Children's Party. So, there was a much nicer atmosphere, and far fewer bad manners in evidence (less alcohol being consumed by guests). No "Jolly Jump" unfortunately, because of torrential rain, but there was an abundance of different and engaging, indoor art activities, games, dress-ups, movies....
* This morning, I volunteered in my daughter's Kindergarten classroom. A great group of children. I put together homework folders, worked in groups in a comprehension color, cut and paste activity, and worked one-on-one with a student who was trying to learn how to write his name more clearly. It was a real pleasure, and the time went by so quickly.
* I'm almost done with my Holiday shopping for family back in New Zealand. This was my ambitious task for Term break, when I'd far rather be doing anything else but that. Still, I'd better start looking over my Pharmacology textbook. It looks a little daunting, to say the least.
