Teaching was tricksty today. This week is a Gollum week. We got through it and were gentle to each other when we realised that things were going to be fragile and all is well. When I got home, I checked the weather and realised that the problem is in the wind. We were all reacting to it. It's got a sharp chill to it (while it's technically nine degrees outside right now, for instance, it feels like zero). I gave them warming writing and a bit longer for morning tea and, as I said, it all worked out. Some days are fragile days, is all, and some groups are more likely to be affected by those days.

What I want to do is have a nap, but writing beckons. I'm getting the evening off, with friends, though, so it's worth pushing through this afternoon.
