Trying to simultaneously fold the kids laundry, pack the kids suitcases for VT this weekend, get the kids ready for bed and then out them to bed and still manage a little AZ surfing via my blackberry

Watching Might Machines:Winter Blast with the kids. They actually have about a 20 minute really cool segment shot at Mt Tremblant all about groomers, lifts, snowmaking equipment, etc!! IMHO a GREAT $1 redbox flick (for ski addict "kids" of all ages!)

I'm sure it'll all work out well for you , you've put forth the effort ,just BELIEVE in yourself and trust me IF the exam seemed onerous for you, Others are in a similar state . Chances are that such an exam will be graded on the curve anyway IF its THAT difficult . Some of my comrades in arms feel like their students need to suffer as they did when in that role .

I always felt as a prof that MY ROLE WAS TO provide an environment in which motivation was likely to occur and that students were inspired to become all they were capable of becoming . i used to get in huge debates that i want to make kids stretch and grow intellectually and learn HOW to think and problem solve NOT dictate

Chill,, Put it in your "rearview mirror " and move on . Life awaits

Thanks for the perspective. :) I'm used to doing well and this Math class was a butt kicker (and ultimately will be a GPA reducer). I was pretty upset about one of the questions that I couldn't answer, but in the end, I will pass the class no problem and that's what matters. Life goes on. :D

We have a really nice Christmas Party tonite at the Fredrick Remington Art Museum , Its a formal affair , catered, dress up event . that is held annually by the medical center for the board and all the docs and their significant others . Usually a great time .

The setting is gorgeous a huge old time White Mansion on the Riverfront park with connecting galleries . The Queen, being a watercolorist always enjoys this one as several artists in residence will be there too. Remington was from the area before he became famous as a sculptor/painter of the OLD WESTERN scene. His stuff is in the White House , Smithsonian and other prominent locations.

Very nice, Warp!

I was snuggling under the down comforter watching "The Santa Clause" with the kids. Getting up now to clean up and probably bake something.
