Today was an unusual class &#8211; officially the school is on holiday.  Today&#8217;s classes were an exchange for a holiday at the end of the month.  So, both Miki sensei and I showed up to teach the classes.<\/p>\n<p>It went pretty well &#8211; Miki sensei was very helpful in helping me plan the lessons, because she has worked with the students for a long time and she knows what they&#8217;ve been working on.  I did notice that Miki sensei was quick to jump in and guide the lesson in the direction she felt it should go.  I guess that&#8217;s natural, I didn&#8217;t mind.  It&#8217;s her last class.<\/p>\n<p>After the classes I got a chance to chat with Nozaki sensei and talk a little about doing some small classes for junior high students five times a month.  She&#8217;s paying even more for those classes, so now I&#8217;ll be making exactly the same amount of money working part time as I was working full time in Nishinomiya.  We worked on the logistics of the new classes, and then it was time to head back home.  I got home around eight p.m., and for the first time in a long time Kuniko had arrived at home before me.<\/p>\n<p>This week will be pretty busy for Kuniko, but pretty quiet for me.  We&#8217;re going to have a friend over for dinner on Wednesday night, and then Kuniko has a series of get-togethers with co-workers and ex-co-workers at the end of the week.  We&#8217;re going to try to squeeze in a visit to see the cherry blossoms in Akashi park sometime this week.  I&#8217;ll try to get some pictures of it &#8211; it&#8217;s always pretty dramatic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today I got a chance to teach some classes for the first time in a long while.
