All in a [Tues]Day's Work

19 papers left to do by August 5th for class. Doable with diligence.

A classroom full of treasures that's already starting to come together.

Plans, plans, and more plans.

The test-run of the crock pot: a major success. (Sorry, food processor. You've been demoted to 2nd favorite.)

A glass of wine while cleaning up.

The ebb and flow of a to-do list with things crossed off and more things added.

Making friends with coworkers.

Students who are excited to meet me -- and how excited I am to meet them, too.

Tea and Tennyson research to end the evening.

Another busy day slated for tomorrow.

Whew.

hahaha That was a quick demotion for that food processor! But I totally understand ... crockpot = heaven. :)

Sounds like your life is blissfully full.

Do you know Lindsay Bartling? She's living in York right now, too.

Yes, it was short-lived. But if I knew Monday what I learned yesterday, I wouldn't have lied to the food processor like that.

But yes, life is busy in good ways right now. Sounds like yours is as well. :)

I have met her once, I think. Awesome to hear another Seward grad's in the area!! There's just something about Nebraska...
