Back to the Salt Mine

A special shout out to my sister Mary and her family: Matt, Daniel and Marlitheo. Mary liked the "Sagging" entry because her 4-year-old, Daniel, has learned Sagging from Marlitheo, who must be 14. We've got 4-year-olds Sagging, and 2-year-olds playing computer games; what is this world coming to?

Ahh, the end of a lovely, relaxing holiday weekend and tomorrow it's back to work for the final two weeks. The last two weeks are not too bad, except that most students have switched their brains to "SHUT DOWN." There was a little voice, called their conscience, that asked: "Are you sure you want to shut down?" Most of them clicked OK without thinking. The better students have switched to "STANDBY" just in case something interesting pops up during lessons. So the onus is on the teachers to make the lessons interesting. I will try!
