Friday night blog

Hello reader(s)! It is Friday night, my M. has left for a four-day business trip so I am doing laundry and reading at my parents house. There has been a recent request for a new blog from me, so I will comply!

Interesting thing from this week, I had my first parent-teacher conference! Probably not deserving of an exclamation point, it went kind of badly. The parent was upset that he wasn't notified that his child hadn't turned in a lot of work. I have a lot of students who haven't turned in work and didn't know I should be calling parents. I'm still contemplating what to do about this...

My last full-time week at the HS is next week, I am pretty weary and looking forward to having some time off and moving on, so it frightens me a little to wonder how tired I would be if this was the real thing!

So another lifeless blog for me, perhaps I will write a story next time :)
