Sandra Day O Connor says happiness comes from work worth doing. I'm heading back in, to do the worthwhile work. Yesterday was a downer as the peeps were verging on hateful. Could they be angry at me, their teacher, as they struggle through ISTEP testing? Angry perhaps because they see me as the person who let them down and did not teach them how to do the various inane problems in the booklet before them. Perhaps. But on a good note, our podcast is getting some awesome comments. And the rosebreasted grosbeaks have been showing up all week to hog the feeder and to fill me with awe. You still have to listen to the podcast. And comment. Sorry, but we have 17 more comments to get to our goal of 30. Come on, people. We can do this.

More than likely your peeps are simply angry at the world. Those nasty tests will do that to you.

Yeah, you're probably right.
We sang Eye of the Tiger this

Forgot to tell you: A couple of CELTers said they wanted to get back in touch with you, and asked for your email. Hope you don't mind that I gave it to them.
