What have I gotten myself into?

I must be totally insane. O.k. I know I am. I'm very tired after an exhausting day. The first day is always tiring. My classes are o.k. Nothing exciting right now. I'm trying to manage without being in my classroom. I really hate having an 8 period day. 45 minutes for classes is too short when it comes to conference periods. I feel perpetually behind and like I'll never get caught up. Add to that my graduate courses. I logged on today it is overwhelming. For one of my classes, I'll be reading well over 100 books plus two textbooks. Granted they are children/youth books, but the sheer volume and having to collect them and read them will be daunting. In addition I have to write 28 journal entries plus do three major projects. And this is just one course. The other will have five papers, some quizzes and discussions. I'm going to get my calendar situated and try to set myself up a clear schedule to work from.
But that's all I can share for now.... as I'm totally exhausted and need to head to bed!
