its midterm season somewhere

But here, it feels like finals. I have a laundry list of things due next week: unit plans for November, assessments for the end of November, lesson plans for the week after next, and first quarter grades.

Not to mention I'm trying to get my literacy centers up and running in a more rigorous way.

And then we just got an email that we need to revise all of our lessons for next week by Sunday night.

It's 7:48, the kids are about to arrive, and I just want to hang my head for the day.
