The Calm Before the Storm

Somehow it seems appropriate that the very outer bands of Tropical Storm Fay brought some sprinkles and a few gusts of wind today, as this weekend is my last before I begin working on my master’s degree, and it really does feel like the calm before the storm.  Classes start Monday.  I have been so busy this week, and I already feel behind.  I have had to start making to-do lists.  I know some people swear by them, but I haven’t really needed to use them often in the past.  It feels very good to cross items off that list.  I hope I haven’t bitten off more than I can chew — I already feel busy without worrying about my own studies!

I have found blogging to be important for my own teaching practice.  This space helps me be reflective and connect, and after doing it for three years, I have discovered I need it.

I guess blogging needs to have an important position on my to-do list.

  1. I know of which speak. We go back this Tuesday, and I'm stressing already. You should see my to-do list. I need a to-do list for my to-do list.

  2. RE: To do lists

    This year I decided to go all digital on my calendar, using Google calendar, but it doesn't have a to-do list.

    So I found "My Ta-Da List" website: http://www.tadalist.com/ It was simple and free to register.

    You can make unlimited lists, and it's so satisfying to check them off. I think it's even better than having "one" to-do list on email.
