7.  Clean up after hostin' ANOTHER faculty fund-raising luncheon at school today (Chinese Chicken Salad for Chinese New Year).

8.  Write lesson plan for principal so that he won't be so freaked out when the SAIT team arrives next week for an inspection ... Mom stayed late this afternoon to do it right away.

9.  Progress reports are due tomorrow afternoon.

10.  Before she can do the progress reports, she has to grade agendas, vocabulary, and silent reading logs plus proctor three spelling tests and three vocabulary tests ... grade 'em all ... an' put them into the gradebook an' the computer.
