1 down 36 to go

I survived the first week back at school and it has been CRAZY. In years past, I have used the first week  prepping lessons and slowly getting to know my students- however, this year our school has adopted a "House/Whanau" system and I am a Whanau Dean. So this year I spent the first week back trying to implement this system as well as checking student options, confirming senior courses and applying for student exemptions.
I now have a new appreciation for anyone who is responsible for time tabling- what a head ache!
I didn't realise how busy I had been till I got into the shower this morning and saw my leg, arm pit and eyebrow hair had grown an inch long! It was like Gorilla's in the mist. 
My personal grooming was not the only thing I neglected this week. Our evening meals have consisted of either Maggi's 2 minute noodles or toast.
So, tonight we are having Steak for tea while I veg out on the sofa and watch trashy TV shows.
I hope you have a happy weekend too.

    You have spent your first week deaning with extreme awesomeness (that office is HOT). And as an added bonus, you have a nice warm coat in preparation for winter (albeit a little early). Maybe if you shave it off, you might be able to spin in and knit a cosy pair of socks for the cooler months.

    (did you know that the Admin block has AIR CONDITIONING? They must be like...RICH or something)

    You know how you mentioned Time-Tabling, when I was in high school, I was a student helper and helped every year to create the TimeTable / Periods / Match classes with Teachers etc etc.. so I know what you're talking about - Headache Much!!
