Standing between me and my sabbatical

The only thing standing between me and my sabbatical

Sixty portfolios to be graded.

  2. The part of teaching I DO NOT miss.

    What are you going to do on your sabbatical?

  3. Sleep, mostly.

    That, and write a book.

  4. It looks daunting. But there is sweet, sweet freedom on the other side!

  5. Looks intimidating, in an artistic sort of way.

  6. Yep, mine started trickling in yesterday, with the flood continuing through Thursday.

    Strength & patience to us all. :-)

  7. Oooh! Sixty! After each one, you could do a different thing as a reward for getting it done...like a 12 Days of Christmas thing! Okay...

    After the first one, you get a cookie.

    After the second one, you pet two kitties.

    After the third one, you ruffle the hair on the heads of three teenagers...

  9. Liz: I like that idea. I deserve sixty rewards.

    Susan: You know me well!

  10. I'm liking your list of things you'd like to do but you have these papers to grade.

  11. I spent the weekend on papers. Yikes. Good luck with those. Now I have to write one. It was due yesterday but my merciful professor gave me till Wed since my computer was in the shop. And now I'm procrastinating.

  12. I'm trying to feel sympathetic, but since I have to grind out at least one more of the puppies... I just say HA! :)

    P.S. Just had my morning laugh over "twitter."
