Oy, I am just beat up from the week. I figured out yesterday that over the course of three weeks I will have interacted with almost 100 students. That's a lot of damn people, ya feel me? But more importantly my voice is just getting trashed. I need to take a day or two off of talking. Let my throat calm down a bit. I could feel it straining near the end of class yesterday.
Made it through the second day with this group of people. Same customer, different group starting next week. Same materials though which is also killing me. I will have done the same class three times back to back to back by Wednesday of next week. It gets so tiring doing the same thing over and over. I empathize with school teachers who have to do the same material year after year. But at least theirs is spread out over a year.
After finishing work I did some work in the basement. I cleaned up the laundry room finally. We have been needing to do that for a while. We just haven't had time or energy since the flooding to really properly clean things up. But it is finally in a better shape. One task out of the way out least.
I started doing a weird little side project last night. I decided to install visual studio and write some C++ code. Yeah, I know. I want to see if I can convert my monthly spreadsheet into an actual program for entering finances. Give me something to play with outside the norm. I did manage to get things set up and write a calculator function. It's something. What I want it is to have it write to a DB so I can capture things more efficiently. Good to have projects.
Off to the grocery store this morning. Then it's bill paying time. Joy.
