Catching up

Last week I had kids being silly all over the place and no free periods to deal with it. This week I have spent hours catching up to them, and getting things sorted. My pinky pile is gone and now I have all my marking to catch up with. No rest...

Tomorrow I go on third form camp, and then after camp finishes I collect an exchange student who will stay with us for a week. Our students won't host Japanese students because they don't know any Japanese, so it tends to be the staff that have them to stay. I don't mind as I would like to get back to Japan sometime, and this gives me an excuse - there is a strong sister city relationship between Wanganui and Nagazima(spelling sucks, its something like that). I'll fix that later.

The bubba might have had croup, but without the barking. Which I have heard of before. Poor little fella. The other one continues to be very fit and healthy and being good too. R is at home for the next week, which is good for him too. He is going to go to the inquest about his brothers death next week, and only realise last night that flying might be an option rather than driving...!

Better go mark stuff.

We've got our Japanese sister school visiting right now! I've invited the teachers to my birthday dinner on Sunday 'cause I really want to pay them back for the awesome hospitality they gave me last year and also 'cause it's the only free night I have had while they've been here! Yikes!
