Not much is going on here that is worth reporting, BUT the next few weeks will be exciting. No, not baby-exciting (that we know of!) but Dave turns 30 on Thursday. On the off chance that he will read this, I will hold off posting the birthday activities as some of them are surprises.
We had a snow day on Wednesday and we got about 8 inches of snow. It was a perfectly productive day for me. I think I may have mentioned in a previous entry that I am teaching 6 classes this year. I actually really enjoy instructing an extra period instead of having a study hall. I love working with my students, and the extra 40 minutes of class time is pretty great. The downside is all the extra grading! Most week nights I put in between 30 and 90 minutes of grading at home, but with the tutoring gig I picked up I feel overwhelmed with paper work! The snow day was great because we all knew it was coming so I brought a ton of work home with me. I didn't get all of it done, but enough so that I can relax a bit this weekend.
I also made some headway in our nursery! I finally ordered a book shelf. Dave laughed at how I agonized over the decision, but the room is so small and the space I want to put it is funny. The one I originally found at Ikea was the style I was looking for, but a bit too short. And also not really functional. :-(
The one I ended up getting is from Amazon, $69 plus free shipping. It is an Oxford 36" 3-shelf book case. I am excited for it to arrive so I can take the books out of the boxes! Plus, it will help make the room look less like a mess and more like a nursery.
