Catching Up...If I Can

My oldest child is fifteen and I've never once been late for a pick-up, until coming home from Fast-Track Week. I was so tired, I slept through my kids' 8:00 religious education pick-up. Fast-Track week certainly was tiring!

It was so nice to put faces with names, and to learn that Debbie is just as nice in person as she is on the DB. It was nice to witness Dr. Tomer and Dr. Alman banter in person, and it was nice to realize that I am doing fine. I can handle these graduate level courses. I am up for the challenge!

So, why did I title this, "Catching Up...If I Can?" I have been so physically exhausted (and a little sick) since I returned that I feel a little behind. Here is what I have left to do this semester:
1. Finish "Linked" plus three other books for LIS2000.
2. Keep up with Hot Topics/Discussion Questions for LIS2000.
3. Put the RSS feed to my blog on my web page for LIS2600.
4. Do Thoreau assignments 1 and 2 and post to my web page for LIS2600.
5. Supplemental readings for LIS2600.

Since writing out this list, I see that I am in the home stretch. If I concentrate this week, I will be able to check items off the list. I am "Catching Up...If I Can!"

Fast Track Weekend (Week)

Fast Track Weekend is finally here. I am really enjoying the on-campus experience. Dr. Tomer and Dr. Alman are as nice in person as they are in the coursecasts. Debbie Day, too. She is as reassuring in person as she is on the DB. One impression that I have come away with is that they care about the program they are presenting and that they want us to do well. Oh, my fellow cohort members are great. I am already looking forward to the next weekend.

I'm really glad that I switched back to my true passion, school libraries. I tried to sell out and take the track with the most opportunities, but let's face it, I'm a school librarian. I belong with the finger-paint set. I look forward to Dr. Biagini's classes in the future. I can hardly believe there is less than a month left of this semester!

Breaking news: I am three-fourth's of the way done with the web assignment. More on that in my next post!
