Steps

Good Morning and Happy Sunday! The sun and I are both slow to wake up today, unless you count the fact that I woke at 330 am and rolled over to go back to sleep. Rare for me to do! The pale winter sky has brightened with the promise of spring and a sunny day. Again, a rarity considering we are halfway through December! What did we do this week? It was a quiet and lazy one for the girls as finals at both colleges started. They have been sleeping late and studying or tutoring friends as needed. Amanda spent some time prototyping in the lab and has presentations to attend and give next week. Serra got to experience one...

Three Ps

Good Morning and Happy Sunday! Pastel winter sun is rising in the sky and yes, I did miss last Sunday. This time last week I was headed over the hill to spend some time with Daddy in Grand Junction. Thankfully I did not run into any snow on the trip over or back and had smooth sailing. Glenwood Canyon is always one of my favorite sights to see. What happened over the last two weeks? Amanda and Serra enacted a plan to spend Thanksgiving together. They ate Ghost Burgers, Green Chile, and Lumpia Nachos, and had some good down time and sister time. I was glad the weather cooperated, and they didn't get caught in the lake effect snow that hit...

Shifting into place

Good Morning and Happy Sunday! The skies are a wintery pastel outside the window today which doesn't quite meet up with the temperature. Yes, it is cooler but not as cold as it has been before at this time of year. I think people are ready for the cold as I saw several out yesterday in puffy coats and I was only in long sleeves. 55* is not cold yet people! What did we do this past week? Amanda is still doing her best to keep the team on track with their project. It's interesting when this current professor is contradicting everything she learned about the process at RPI. This professor also ranks the teams according to his favorites which...

Finding space

Good Morning and Happy Sunday! What do you do when you wake up at your normal time during the week on the weekend? Why lay in bed and daydream of course. There was going back to sleep at 4 am so I relaxed, something new for me that has gotten my attention this week. Sounds like it was a quiet one back east. Amanda still has yet to give her audio presentation, and the professor keeps trying to get her to take another course next semester. Thing is, her schedule is jam packed and it is her last one. Maybe Monday she'll be able to get this presentation complete.  Serra's hand is healing well, and she sounds good. One thing...

Here we go again

Good Morning and Happy Sunday! The skies are displaying a gentle pastel winter sunrise outside my window today. It feels more bleak than usual for the arrival of winter with a week that felt eternal. Sounds like things were quiet out east this week. Serra and friends went to see the latest Venom movie. Her hand is healing well, and she did great on her two exams yesterday. She registered for her spring classes and got the schedule she wanted. I hope that twenty credit hours is not too much for her. Amanda has given into her nerdiness and joined the Thursday D&D campaign that her friend Lucas runs online. Her character is a Dwarf with Samurai roots. I hope it's...
