Hi John, I’ll be attending with full energy tonight; however, I’ve fallen behind on homework due to a new work consulting job that demanded much of my time this week. (It’s only part-time and shouldn’t interfere going forward.)

So I won’t have the Further Readings done, but I’m willing to give them a go during class so long as people can stand my snail’s pace at translating them.

Much gratitude,
Beth

I must echo a similar predicament. I will also not have the “further readings” finished, but am happy to give them the old college try if called on in class. I’m a high school administrator and the month of May (which we affectionately call “The 90 days of May”) is an exceptionally busy time of year where I am stuck working very late hours while we wrap up the school year. Once June hits and it’s summer break here I will have much more time to study and practice. Until then, I’ll just try to keep my head above water.

That’s fine, Beth and James. In actual fact, we’re not likely to get to the Further Exercises in today’s class.

The homework assignments are always aspirational!
