You don't need to prepare so much space, it's not that big! Anyway, you might be adding my book to the trash as well :)

Hi Daniel,

Congratulations! I'm delighted to hear that you finished your book even though you had your work cut out. (Am I wrog changing the tense into the idiom?) You see, we need you back in teaching this year, hopefully...:)

Hi Flori, thank you, I definitely had my work cut out - you used that expression very well, and because it's not an idiom (it's more of a phrasal verb) you can change the tense. You used it very well, though I would change 'even though' and rewrite it like this: 'I'm delighted to hear that you finished your book and it sounds like you had your work cut out.'
