More Leisure...

Vacation continues. Coffee. Breakfast. Read the "paper" (NY Times on my iPhone). Just realized that I should have brought my iPad over to download the New Yorker from two weeks ago. So funny that I read New York stuff from the Y-K Delta.

I did read what I thought was an inspirational article in one of our local papers recently. It has to do with a young woman from out on the coast who is trying to speak to the kids in our villages about trying to succeed in the world and being afraid to try. She can speak to it better than I can: http://www.deltadiscovery.com/story/2012/12/26/village-telegraph/bailey-village-youth-can-overcome-fear/745.html  ...just copy and paste the link into your browser. She strikes me as a good example of what our kids can do. Too many teachers make the mistake of looking at our students and seeing limitations instead of possibilities.

Enough of my soapbox. It is Sunday night, and the menu apparently will consist of spaghetti squash and salad. Remember, no canned spaghetti sauce in my house. It simply isn't done. My wife cooks from scratch, and she is reasonably good at it. That is one of the reasons that my friends that I get the best of the arrangement when I do the dishes and the laundry, because she does the cooking. I suspect that they are correct.

One more week until classes recommence. We would be back earlier, but we have found that classes during Slaaviq week do not work that well. This gives us a longer holiday break, but we do not do spring break. I suppose I will have a break of sorts when the baby is born, but I think that it might not be that restful. It may be a lot of fun, however.


I do think that I will take our new junior high Health textbook home, though, and start going through it. We start with that class new in the second semester. It is time to begin getting ready for the second half of the year. Much is in store...
