I’ve been a tad overwhelmed with my new teaching job – well, I guess I’ve already been there almost two months.  It’s going pretty well, all things considered, but I’m having real trouble sleeping – can’t see to clear my mind of all things school-related, even when I’m totally exhausted.  I bought a nice lavender/thyme soak to enjoy before bed tonight, so I’ll keep my fingers crossed. 

Received the second set of edits/editing comments on A Hare in the Elephant’s Trunk from Peter Carver today – I’ll get to them on the weekend; I think it’ll be a welcome distraction from my Core French life.  I didn’t even allow myself to delve into the notes a little bit, for fear of losing even more sleep…

I’m still trying to decide what to do in celebration of my 50th – take the family to NYC, or myself to Quebec City or possibly Paris…Maybe by the summer, I’ll have had enough French to last me for a while!
