eep!

So I heard from one of my AP darlings.  Phew!  He has been shooting like crazy and just hasn't been able to upload onto his computer.  This made my day.  I have such issues with getting something new off the ground and not hearing from the kids was making me a wreck.

I started working on the curriculum yesterday.  I hit a wall.  I have written curriculum so many times before, but for some reason, I had no idea what direction to head in.  I mean, I ran the class like AP last year so it should have flowed from me.  But, nothing.  I just kept hunting for other curricula online to inspire or jump start me.  I gave up after writing two units.  I want to bed after midnight after Brit murder mysteries and Dave the Spazz's radio show.  And I just couldn't turn off.  I was worrying all about the damn curriculum.  So at 1.30 I get up to sign onto the network and work.  I shut the door and tried to type quietly.  Not easy.  It does not help that I am doing this gratis.  Normally we are paid for writing this stuff.  Due to the fiscal crap - I mean, events - of the past year, there is no money for curriculum writing.  But my proposal was approved.  The course is running.  I have to write this.

So hearing from one of the boys (yes, I have all boys bar one girl) made it worth it for me.
