Good Morning and Happy Sunday! Outside looks grey and overcast in my little corner today. Inside however my storm clouds from this last week have parted and it might be a bit weak but I can see the sun again. What did we do this week? Serra spent part of it resting with her knee. She went back to school on Thursday after spending Wednesday catching up the work she missed and the knee is doing great. Still a little bit of procedure pain but I think it solved the catching and locking that she was experiencing. Follow up on Thursday to double check everything and see if PT is needed. Amanda is through her second week of classes and...
Good Morning and Happy Sunday! Hello September! Fall is inching closer as the nights are staying cooler. I suppose in a few more weeks the fans will get turned off and tucked in the closet and windows will get closed at night. For now I'm going to embrace the cold as it does wonders for my sleep. Rationally I know that every week holds the same amount of time, 168 hours. Everyone has different ways to spend it based on work, home, kids and other responsibilities. However our own personal perception of the amount of time we have is relative to each person. That being said the last two weeks have felt like an eternity! Amanda is only just now...
Good Morning and Happy Sunday! I love the breeze and the cooler temperatures this morning. I think summer isn't quite over yet during the day but nights are giving me a good taste of what is on the way. This week! It was a bit of a wild one. We got Amanda off to the airport crazy early one morning and she finally got settled the next day in her new dorm. After a day and half of more Calculus mentor training and finally meeting the two other bridge scholar mentors in person I think she's getting settled in. Maybe her roommate will finally make it to campus today with classes starting tomorrow. As for Serra I wish I had...
Good Morning and Happy Sunday! Fall might be slowly sneaking up on us in my little corner of the Fort. Days are still hot but nights are cooling off and getting that bite to them. I enjoy it because the chill makes sleeping so much better. What did we do this past week? Even though the temperatures say summer, fall events are in full swing. Serra had a great first week of school with meeting new people in English class and getting up early to take care of some Algebra homework. I'm not used to her having only four classes with the new system but she doesn't mind. Amanda and I spent a good portion of the week getting things...
Good Morning and Happy Sunday! Slept in a bit on this cooler morning in my little corner of the Fort. Personally wouldn't mind things staying that way but summer still has a hold on us. What have we been up to the last two weeks? Lots of little things and relaxing as much as we can before life kicks into high gear again with school starting tomorrow! I don't think Serra is very excited about it but I hope that things go good and that the change to a four class schedule isn't boring. Amanda has two more weeks before classes start but will be headed back soon as she has training to be a Calculus mentor for the fall...
