End of the Tunnel... Sort of

by Rob Shenk

Well, I made it through finals, barely. I was five minutes late for my 8:00 AM final. The final for my most difficult course was a take home final. And wouldn't you know that as I was frantically typing in the last answers, my computer crashed. I have never had a mac crash on me - ever! Does that mean something?

Anyway. I had to retype, but I was able to turn it in 20 minutes late. So I'm done with this semester. A wise man recently reminded me that we get over our obstacles step by step biting off a little here and a little there. Before we know it, we're done. I'm trying to use that to remind me that one day I'll look back at this time and be impressed that I made it.

In the mean time, I'm going to enjoy this break with my kiddos. I may post once more before the holidays; but if not, I'll be back in January. In the mean time, if you find yourself bored, you're welcome to come and read my craft blog where I'm attempting to post our advent activities for the month (trying to start a new tradition). And with no math books to read, I might read fiction and post some on my book blog. (I know. You're thinking I'm crazy, and I have to agree with you. But how else would you be entertained in your bored moments?)
