As usual I start with apologizing for not writing much but last days (again) were quite busy. My last blog already is from October 7, almost a week ago. I wasnt much at school either last week cause there were some meetings I had to join last week. One of the meetings is with a group of persons who wants to make the new way of education (more competent education as its called here) more clear. Its a group of 10 persons from all our country. Every year (this is our third year) we take some problems and we try to find solutions for it. Last year examination was a big topic for the federal inspection thinks we are not enough transparent towards our students. We wrote a plan to improve and I think, so far, that plan works. This year on of the topics is implementating political education.
The second meeting I had last week was for an examination committee in which I take place. Things like determine exams and finding solutions for problems are talked over there.
Finally last Friday I had a whole day management meeting here about the planning of the coming year. Sometimes a bit boring but those things need to be done.
Also this week my wife went to hospital. For several years she has neck-aching (hope you understand what I mean) and that is caused by her , too heavy, breasts. She is rather small so that is a problem. Last Thursday she went to hospital for a breast reduction. I never thought those operations lasted that long. They were busy for more then 3 hours. When she was back at the nursing department she looked rather dizzy and she had a lot of pain. She lived on pain relievers for some days now.
Saturday she was allowed to come home again.
For me rather busy because she isn't allowed to do much for the coming weeks. So I vacuum clean, I was, I dry, I iron....... I need to help her put on her socks, I had to dry her back yesterday after she took a shower.... so yes quite busy.
As far as I could see the result of the surgery is OK.
Finally: today is October 13 and exactly 7 years ago the day my father died. Always a weird feeling. I am not a cemetery-visitor, but in my thoughts there is always something special on this day. Reminds me I have to call my mother tonight, always a hard thing to do cause she still is very emotional about my father during this week of October (its also her birthday the 16th so....)
Well I will stop boring you and hope ( I cant promise off course) I will be able to write soon again.
