At last! This past Friday was the last multicultural education class. Huzzah! Yesterday we started on a Classroom Instruction, Management and Assessment class that looks like it will be much less sitting around talking and much more doing and learning. I am relaxing and enjoying class again.

I still have a paper due this coming week for the Multicultural class, and I'll have to push myself to overcome my persistent resistance to the subject and get the assignment done. In theory, we need each other's Lesson Plans, and I've only got mine and one other at this point. But regardless, I'll have to write the paper with or without the other material, so that's not a very good excuse for putting it off.

So today, instead of homework, I put the chore lists together into some form that might result in my actually starting to do the chores again, and that took far more time than I really should have spent on it. Towards the end of the day, D. & I went out to tackle the jungle on the south side of the house. We've cleared another six feet or so. With any luck, we'll actually break a pathway through to the side door so that I can get to my old fashioned roses before the blooming season stops. Right now I can see them outside of the windows and they look lovely. Progress is being made. We keep uncovering 'nests' of flattened grass, and I continue to wonder if the kittehs appreciate our uncovering their hidey-holes.
