Professor for a day!

I just got some really good....and bad news.

Last Tuesday, one of my college professors called me. She has MS and was in the hospital the last few days and found that she was weaker than bedridden longer than she expected (not the exciting part). The exciting part is that she asked me to take care of her class tomorrow! I'm very honored because she is an amazing professor and for her to call me means a lot. This also may mean that I might be able to get in the pool for teaching adjunct if I can get her recommendation which would be absolutely incredible.

The classes went well. For those of you familiar with the projects, the students were working on their travel posters. It seems like a really long time ago that I was working on that. As I'm sure is always, the case, some were great, some were cliché. It was very fun though.

After talking to Anne after the class, she sounds like she wants me to help out on Tuesday too. A part of me is, of course, very excited. All of me hopes to receive a call on Monday that she magically woke up and is walking again but that doesn't sound likely.

In other news, Rhianna is finishing her swimming lessons on Saturday and I think we'll sign her up again since she seems to be getting used to it. Next Wednesday I'm going to start swimming lessons for me. I'm very excited. We'll see how it goes. Hey, at least it's something different.

P.S. Special congrats to Cole who might have finally caught a break as she was interviewed for a second grade teaching position.

Hey there! What a strange mix of luck, huh? It's so terrible to hear that Anne's in bad health, but so exciting for you to be teaching...I can really see you knocking those kids around!

Best of luck, and i hope it continues for you!
