Jan you're a teacher a too right? Resist the compulsion to spend too many hours at work. There's always more that can be done when you're a teacher. It's like dishes or laundry - never ending.

My entire district is down in the dumps - no money, staff has been cut to the bare minimum, new very intensive language arts program, everyone has more responsibilities and less time. I'm trying to convert them all to my new attitude "Who GAS" as in who gives a s**t. Which translates to, work gets X number of hours a day, (varies depending on weather and Thom's schedule) that's it. I do the most pressing stuff - generally related to doing right by my students and everything else - Who GAS!
