Jan. 17, 2006 - Ohhhhh, not feelin good today!
I've had a chest cold since
yesterday. I felt the tickle Sunday night and knew what was
coming. Woke up Monday and ehhh...it wasn't so bad, but today
it's a full fledged respiratory event, complete with hacking cough and
lots of exciting phlegm! Ooooh...bet you wanted to know that,
hmmm?
Chas has been off work for a few days, so he's helping me with teaching
the boys, and that takes a load off. We had to work together
tonight on a tutorial because I was stumped not on how to convert
decimals to fractions, but vice versa, especially on non terminating
fractions, where the answer goes like 0.855555555555........
I just hope I can get to participate in a co-op where someone can
assist me in teaching math. Math scares me, because it's all
about absolutes. In high school, I managed to pass certain
subjects like biology or history because I was able to write my papers
in such a way that it sounded like I knew what I was talking
about. Basically, I was a really good bull**** artist!
Not something I want my kids doing, however, so I actually need to know
what I'm teaching, or know who to ask to teach it for me. Whew!
But...it's good for me. Relearning all this stuff just might help
sharpen the old noodle, eh? You know what they say...your brain
is a muscle, you have to exercize it!
