Roads to Safe Places

One of the downsides of studying at home is that I get far too distracted. While reading my texts for my didactics exam I caught myself doodling lesson plans, tried to come up with exercises for Friday (something I scheduled for Friday morning), tried to make up games for my students, tried to think of think of fun writing exercises I can use to get the other students to write, of songs I can use for the listening comprehension crew. I watched a blue tit, planned a story.

But I suppose productivity is a good thing.










Also, the moon is particularly beautiful today:








I hope everyone had a good first Advent Sunday. Do you do anything to celebrate it? Crocky and I lit the first candle of our wreath (a tradition which was supposedly invented by the theologian who founded the school where I did my second internship, Johann Hinrich Wichern) and read together in the evening. I would have liked to sing with her, too, but she was busy on Sunday, so we're doing that tonight. I love singing with her.
