So I can have a break. Too many deadlines between now and then.
Nov. 12 group presentaiton for class "Equity, Policy and Assessment in Science Education"
Nov. 19 reflection on group presentation
Nov. 19 develop and teach workshop session on Engineering
Nov. 21 (This is the big one that has me working still at 11:30 on Friday night) Grant due
Thanksgiving week has no deadlines but still a lot to work on
Dec. 3 poster presentation on research project for class; I need to be doing regular work on it from now until then
Dec. 12 develop and implement daylong Earth and space science teacher workshop
December 13-16 (Friday-Monday) family comes to town for holiday visit
During that weekend, working my butt off and not seeing the family, but hey, it's about the grandkids now anyway. I should be thankful that I have people there to watch my kids so I can work, but I have to squeeze in some good quality time with my sis.
December 16-17 develop and implement two daylong Earth and space science teacher workshops.
December 17 research paper based on research poster due for class.
And except for the family visit, that in no way reflects my everyday home responsibilities. God forbid one of my kids gets sick or worse, me!
After that I can breathe again. We're not traveling for Christmas. MrPi's siblings are coming to our house for the actual holiday, but we've hosted them enough that we know how to keep it stress free.
So, either you won't see me much between now and then because I'm working my ass off, or you'll see me way too much because I'm procrastinating. Like now.
Too bad ignorance isn't painful.
