a good day, for a change

Lately every day has been completely stressful and over-whelming. Today at last I've had a break. I finished grading a set of papers last night, which meant I could spend today working on my conference paper. It was a day without worrying about students or their problems. I loved revising the paper, since it's mine, and it's about Jane Eyre, which I'm also teaching. After I finished getting the paper ready, I read the book for tomorrow, the last section and happy conclusion. It's such a wonderful book! I'm going to commit to teaching it at least once a year from now on.
