End of a Holiday and Now End of Term

I wish I could report that I've done all this glorious reading, but really I've been trying to survive this back to work madness!  My bff is here from Michigan, so I'm loving having my holiday joy extended.  There's only one problem--I have to grade a stack of these:


The only way to get the grading finished with people around is to stay up late.  After about 8 hours over four days, I'm ready to crash!  Thankfully I see the light at the end of the End-of-Term grading and paper pile.  Once I've pushed through the last 37 essays, I think I'll finally settle back into a normal schedule again.   I can't wait to get back to my reading!  

What did you face once the holidays were over?

  5. That stack looks crazy!! Good luck! I had a last minute deadline at work as soon as the holidays were over and had to process 800 students in 2 days. So glad it's over.

  6. Thanks guys. :) I'm getting closer with each day that passes, so I'm praying I can hold it together until I do get them finished! I see the light at the end of the tunnel though, which makes me very happy.
