Out of the Frying-Pan into the Fire

I received an email from a parent of one of the girls I am tutoring. She is very, very pleased with her daughter's progress in math. This past weekend, another mother told me she wishes I was her daughter's classroom teacher. It is nice to receive compliments. It doesn't happen often in the teaching profession.

I made beef stew in the slow cooker for the first time today. It will be ready in 8 hours. I hope it turns out OK. Seemed too easy, I felt like I was missing something.
