Weekly digest 16
Stessful week — it was subject review week at school, so extra scrutiny of my lessons, my students' workbooks, and my students' opinions. My lessons were okay-ish, my workbooks are bad, but my students were pretty positive about me.
At the weekend my wife and I had my parents babysit the kids for the first time and went to a local pub. Was great to do something as grown-ups together for once. Moreover, there was a spectacular alsation.
I’m back to working out, for the first time since the second child arrived.
