Fun Class

The professor who watched our class a little today said afterwards that she had a great time in the class. I just wanted to tell you I did too. You really are a great group and a lot of fun to be around every day. Thank you!

The Long Weekend

I hope all of you are enjoying the long weekend. None of you mentioned your class on Friday. I assume you were all there and that you survived without me!

I had a tiring but enjoyable weekend. I spent a lot of time cooking and eating, but I also got to see some relatives and friends I'm very close to but don't get to see very often. I see some of them only once a year -- on Passover. Both of my kids were sick, but not that sick. They were able to enjoy the holiday anyway.

I'm looking forward to seeing all of you tomorrow!

Multicultural Fair

I hope you all enjoyed the fair today. I want to congratulate all of you for the great job you did on your country pages. Our class had so many really wonderful projects. Your writing was definitely better than the other classes' writing (Don't tell anyone I said so, though!). I was very proud of you. I wish all of yours could have been chosen, but we wanted each class to be represented. Congratulations to Kim and Thony for having their projects displayed. I hope some of you, at least, saw the highlight of the fair -- Oliver's dance. During one of the rock songs, Oliver put down his backpack, got in the middle of the room and started doing an amazing dance. Everyone made room for him, and stood around him in a circle smiling and enjoying his performance. I smiled and laughed so hard that my cheeks hurt for a while afterward! Thanks, Oliver!

Have a good day tomorrow with Josef. I'll be spending the day in my kitchen cooking for all the company I'll have Saturday and Sunday for the Jewish holiday Passover. (Happy Passover, Debora!). I might be too tired and achy to move on Tuesday, but I'll try to be in class! See you then. Have a great long weekend!

Tiring Weekend

This was a busy weekend. This week, my younger daughter was in a play, so we went to see her last night and this afternoon. She was wonderful, of course (Of course, I am her mother!). I spent all day yesterday cooking for next week's Jewish holiday. I stood in my kitchen for around 8 straight hours. My legs hurt a lot today. I apologize for any mistakes I made commenting on your blogs tonight. I keep dozing off. I think it's definitely time to go to bed.

Boston Again

Yesterday, my husband, daughter and I drove up to Boston and back again. Yes, we did it in one day. My older daughter, who is a singer and actress at college, was in a show. We really wanted to see it (and her), but we only had the one day free this weekend. It was a quick but nice trip. The show was really funny, and she was great of course (I'm not biased or anything!). It was good to spend a little time with her and get some good food into her! We'll see her again in a couple of weeks when she comes to us for a Jewish holiday celebration.

Hello

I'm sorry I haven't written anything recently. I have had a very busy week, both at work and at home. You can tell how tired I must be since I kept forgetting things in my office today. I'll try to get a little rest over the weekend and be my organized self next week. I hope you all enjoy your weekends.
