Things I miss...

The new semester is underway - two days gone already. It's been a good change but sometimes I'm left thinking that may not be a big enough change. That's a hard one to explain so I won't even try.

I do miss the witty grade 10s but I think that the new classes will provide a fair share of entertianment. We just need some time to get settled in. The grade 10s still do have their regular lunch hour visit which keeps me on my toes. Evaluation is tomorrow and yup I'm nervous. There is something unsettling about being watched by some Superintendant who really doesn't know you at all. What's worse is he is making notes of your every move. The timing of the whole event makes me uneasy. We will be three days in and aren't into anything incredibly exciting just yet.

Basketball season is almost over. Just a couple more weeks. I must say that I'm proud of my girls and how much they have improved. They play with lots of determination and show a desire to learn. We won a game this last weekend in Lac du Bonnet. It was exciting and I'm happy that their hard work paid off. I miss playing basketball - I miss the competition and excitement. I still find it hard to just sit on the bench and coach and really wish I could still be out there playing.

I guess I should get some sleep - the mornings always seem to come quickly and the days dont leave any time to relax. I'm still trying to get stuff put together for this semester - as of right now it's a day to day sort of adventure - which I'm not a fan of. I like to be prepared. Sometimes all I need is a little stability - a distraction to keep my mind off of things...but we will save that for another day.
