Good Morning and Happy Sunday! It's crisp and cool this morning making it difficult to get out from under the covers considering I have been taking advantage of it by sleeping with the windows open. Not a good start when I feel behind. Need to figure out how to relax today. What did we do this week? Everyone seems to be plugging along and taking care of business. Amanda loves her assistant dean. He schedules staff meetings at a decent hour, listens when she has concerns, and communicates well. When you have good people around you, it makes it easy to enjoy the job. First exam of the year was in Cognitive Neuroscience and some professors are much better in...
Good Morning and Happy Sunday! Thankfully it seems the cooler temperatures at night are here to stay. I do wish they would have helped with sleep this week. Serra has especially been enjoying being able to sleep under her weighted blankets again. Now if I can figure out how to get rid of the cough she's dealt with for the last two days, all would be well. What did we do this week? Amanda has an amazingly quiet group of freshmen this year as she is on duty this weekend, and everything has been calm. The most exciting thing has been the Spider-man movie marathon that has been happening in one of the halls. They started a few weeks back...
Good Morning and Happy Sunday! Bit of a late start today as my friend Fall has finally arrived. Temperatures are cooling off and look to stay that way. So even though I was awake at 5:30, the covers were super snuggly, and I crashed back out. There was even a couple of days last week that were perfect for stretching out and doing nothing, a rarity in many ways for me. What did we do this week? It sounds like classes are cruising along for Amanda. Finally getting to take courses that are the entire point of your college career is great. Tutoring starts this week, yes, she is again sharing her alphabet math skills to fund her Indian food...
Good Morning and Happy Sunday! Have to agree with Amanda on enjoying the quiet of the morning. Watched the sunrise and spent some time texting with her already today. Bonus of the time differential, I get to do both. The calendar has shifted to September. I know it's not the new year, or the beginning of a season, however September has always brought me a sense of renewal. I don't know if it is the drift into fall or the fact that I have followed school routines for the vast majority of my life. What did we do this week? Amanda completed her first week of classes and first duty night. She is finally getting to a class that focuses...
Good Morning and Happy Sunday! The sun is shining through the trees highlighting the grass that is a happier, brighter shade of green from the gift of rain it received. The storm on Friday was absolutely wonderful and broke the overwhelming heat that was here early in the week. The last few nights have been cooler which always makes sleep better. Instead of allowing me to keep that wonderful sleep my brain decided to throw me a bad dream that has me knocked off my rails this morning. What did we do this week? Serra started out rocky with not wanting to stay home on Monday. Her body had other ideas and still needed to work out the cold that...
