Holiday meals continued…January 9, 2008

Beautiful day, a few degrees above zero, sun, melting snow, fake spring.   Teachers meetings have started, I can't really understand what they are about.  Basically each department has to present on it's activities in the last year.   And then there's issues like fire safety, swimming and diving accidents, science lab safety, stuff like that.  Last night was yet another holiday party amazing table food spread singing toasting marathon.   How can celebrations be so tiring?  I am trying to figure out my schedule and plan overall topics and units.  Just got invited to another holiday meal...
