Progress

Life over the last little while has been reasonable. Though my new pupils still occasionally give me grief, overall, they have settled a fair bit and are becoming more productive. I'm particularly pleased with my year 10 Literature class and, especially, my year 11 Media Studies class; they are now finally ready to dig in to the introductions of their coursework essays (though, granted, the year 10s (a weak set) require a substantial amount of spoon feeding).

On the exercise front, yesterday I ran a hill that I used to do occasionally to challenge my cardio levels. It had been a few weeks since I had last run it. Yesterday, when I did so, I completely "owned" it. I'm also continuing to see much shrinkage of the waist line. All of this does have a downside, however: I'm already down to the last hole on my latest belt and many of my trousers are becoming just too loose to wear properly. Another shopping trip for clothes is badly needed.

As for relationship stuff, I'm really looking forward to spending the weekend with [livejournal.com profile] imapunkin. On account of illness, we haven't been able to visit each other for close to three weeks. I've really missed her.

Anyhow, I must move on with the day. Before I leave for [livejournal.com profile] imapunkin's I have to get a run in, shower, empty my camera memory, pack, and other little odds and ends before heading out today.
