Tonight as I was standing in the kitchen making dinner with my husband while my son raced a truck around the living room, I realized, I only have 5 more papers in my pile to grade, then the rest of the week I get to review projects and give finals.  My house is busy and peaceful, I love my job (even if right now I am only an adjunct) and whatever is coming down the road in terms of problem students, or job interviews, I will get so many more nights like this one then nights where chaos reigns.

I think I am actually ready for the Holidays.

Now if only the dog would calm down.

This wouldn't be a beagle, which you were recently given, would it?
