Brrrrrr! It's still cold out there--Ashley and I share, "Baby...it's cold outside!" It was zero, actual temperature, not that windchill stuff, yesterday during our run. It hit a high here of 12 during the afternoon, but is back at zero right now. It was odd, with the low temperatures, to watch the bright sunshine still melt the light dusting of snow on our driveway. Radiant heat....
I was laughed at yesterday, at least a bit, for not watching the football game(s). In fact, in yakking on the phone, I discovered who was playing. I was almost shamed into turning on the Packers/Bears game, but soon lost interest. I didn't watch any of the Steelers/Jets game. I try, but I just have no interest in these games. We've been invited to a Super Bowl Party and I'm looking forward to going. But I doubt I'll watch much of the game, but will be Mr Social--you know me!
It is really gratifying to see some of the 3rd/4th graders play basketball. OK, one of them is really head and shoulders above almost all of the rest--in the whole league, not just our team. But the improvement over last year is fun to watch--many don't really score at all, although some do, but they have an idea of what they are doing, play hard, and do other things like play defense and even dribble much better. Practice tonight and I'm looking forward to it.
Ugh. I spent about 6-7 hours yesterday grading papers. I have about 2 1/2 classes (of 4) done so far. I hope to finish all of the rest today, along with entering my final class lists. I figure another 3-4 hours today. More come in this week, but the essays won't be as long.
