I have a pile of corrections glaring at me from my bench. Neatly typed essays that will, when I stop procrastinating, be a pleasure to read. It’s times like these I wonder why I’m not teaching PE. The answer is obvious in the lack of sporting ability.
I have decided on NaNoWriMo. I really want to do it. I have applied for a leadership position at school and have been told I have been successful, just don’t know which position yet. I know I may not have time to write much for the next 3 years so I want to have a go at it. I really have to get organised and get my corrections handled.
The other motivating force is that my birthday is the day before reports are due. If I procrastinate now I will spend that day writing reports. I love my birthday and know from past experience I will feel very sorry for myself if I have to spend it report writing!
I notice other bloggers write that they won’t be posting as much due to large workloads, but I know myself, I will possibly post more – I love distractions. I understand all those organisational gurus. I hear what they are saying, yet we will see.
Corrections, report writing and yard duty – if they could just be outsourced teaching would be the best job in the whole world!
I’m the same, the more I have to do in the future, the more I blog now. But I’ve never been good at long term projects. Must have deadlines or nothing gets done!
Me too! No deadline= neverending. Thanks for stopping by.
wellll I love proofreading [and know way too much about syllabi these days] so’d love to do it –but it’d only work if I thought there were a million and othr things for me to get done!
