January 6, 2010

My first adventure: creating a personal blog! Expect to see the URL in your New Year's Eve greetings. I am hoping you will also respond to the postings with your comments and questions.

I finished preparing for the UG Strategy class this morning. I'm still wondering exactly what level of English the students will have in my classes that will be taught in English. I will complete the preparations for the MBA Strategy elective class today. I am waiting to hear how many students are enrolled in each class. I still need to prepare my "Guest Lectures" for the MBA IB class. The Professor of record is an Economist, and has failed to give me a syllabus as yet. His e-mail was interesting...and difficult to read. I love my economist colleagues and students, but I just need more guidance!

My suitcases sit in my family room waiting to be weighed. I've confirmed a 61 pound limit on EVA, and I will pay to have a third bag checked in...$89 is definitely cheaper than shipping. Picture me with three "61" pound bags, a carry-on suitcase and a very large hand-bag. I hope the TSA gods are merciful.

The house and yard are ready for the housesitter who arrives on Friday. We will have a week of overlap, but he will be starting TAMUCC classes, and I will be running around like a mad woman checking off the final items on the to-do list.

I'm waiting to hear what housing I will have at Yuan Ze. I have no idea whether I need to take bedding and household items...oh, lord...another suitcase????

For now...Happy New Year and Gong Xi Fa Cai!
