For the following week I will attempt to find a more productive way of handling finances with my wife. While we have been doing well, I know that there is another way in which we can save more money for that summer vacation we would like to take. I will of course have to come up with a plan with which to present to her, and hopefully from there we can work something out.
Teaching others:
Recently some of my students have been unwilling or unable to complete their class work in a timely manner. I can of course keep them during recess to complete their assignment, but that takes away from my time and their time. Instead of having them stay and complete their work, I will try and work out a deal with the more chronic cases where they could get extra perks (extra recess time) if they complete their work on time without any extensions. Teaching them how it will be beneficial to both of us if they complete their assignments in a timely manner.
