I'm not sure sick is a mood, but I am and it was a choice.

Since I got pregnant there were many medicines I couldn't take. After LB was born and I was nursing, there were still things I couldn't take, especially things like decongestants. Well, I've gotten my first cold since LB's been weaned. And today I took a decongestant. And even better, it worked. I'm not 100% better, but I am better.

I've almost made it through my first week. It's been nice, actually. The kids are either scared or good, I'm not sure which yet. I guess I'll find out soon enough. But it's gone smootly and I'm making some changes that I think will help the students. We'll see.

My conference period is the last class of the day and that seems to be working out pretty well. I'm actually getting work done during it. It's a long teaching day but it works. I'm trying to take less work home with me. And am mildly successful. I hoping to skip any work this weekend and I'm close to it, but not quite there. But I still have tomorrow to finish things. We'll see.

LB's adjusted OK to getting up early again, and he always seems happy at day care, when I drop him off and when I pick him up. Makes taking him there much easier.

OK, enough babbling from me tonight.
