9/7/21

For the most part, a regular day. There is a new person staying at our house, a Russian-Canadian teacher named Katerina. I haven’t really had a chance to speak with her yet. My friend called and we spoke on the phone for like two hours; it was good to catch up with them and nice to be able to talk to someone else who has just started working in a new city. I meant to get a bunch of lesson planning done tonight, but I didn’t. This seems to be a common theme on weekdays. I had planned to work on an additional essay for Saturday, because I think the daily blog format is getting kinda boring, but this seems less and less likely to happen. We’ll see.
