Student Snippets A Window Into The Daily Life & Thoughts of SLIS Students

Nope, Not in a Routine Yet

It’s technically the third week of classes at SLIS, and I am definitely not in a routine yet.

My kids are only in their first full week of school and gymnastics, so I’m not completely clear about their rhythm, which means I’m also not completely clear about my rhythm.  I’m taking two classes — 481, Children’s Collections, which meets Thursday evenings (my first evening class!), and 407, Reference, which I’m taking online and has significant work due every Tuesday night.  Because of some one-time scheduling issues, I’m a bit behind this week — I’m not the type who enjoys doing work due Tuesday on Tuesday, but that’s what’s happening right now!  Hopefully I’ll get it all straightened out this week, and by next week be on a better schedule for schoolwork.

And I have full confidence that the kids will get themselves straightened out.  They have excellent teachers, love their classrooms and enjoy gymnastics, so as long as I get them where they need to be when they need to be there, with snacks, we should be OK.

Is anyone else still working out their new fall schedule?  Or am I the only one not quite there yet?
