Long-Lost Posting
So I've been failing on my plan to actually write in this journal for 25 weeks now. Ridiculous! So I thought I'd try again. I'm writing from my brand new laptop that I got a week ago, which I LOVE. I also bought a new digital camera in the same week. Playing with the camera at a Steven Curtis Chapman concert. Black & white pictures, and quick pictures, and some amazing close ones with the 10x zoom.
This past week I've had very little to do at school, because the students were testing, so most of the time the small groups were canceled for the week. So I spent a lot of time sitting around reading, although I also gave a few makeup tests. Then at the library, it's absolute chaos. We're in the middle of construction, so in the back room where I work, the rug is half torn out, and for half of the week we had part of the wall torn down ... and everything's moved around, which is a complete headache. To add to the entertainment, we're training a new person, who's worked in a different department up until two weeks ago. and that's led to a lot more close supervision by our supervisors, which can also be unpleasant. Normally we're pretty much left alone to do our job, but these past two weeks have been anything but that.
