Good Morning and Happy Sunday! It's a quiet morning as an impromptu sleepover happened last night. The sun is shining, the grass is green and at the moment my only wish would be for the scent of lilacs to slide in through the window. What did we do this past week? Amanda is finished with classes and students moved out yesterday. She is on a well-deserved trip with her best friend this weekend exploring Boston. I hope that she is not too bored when she gets back to campus and has nothing to do beyond packing before her graduation ceremonies. What I can announce is her acceptance into the University of Rochester's Biomedical Engineering Master's Program in the Center for...
Good Morning and Happy Sunday! I have a bit of multitasking going on at the moment as I want to write and have English Muffins for breakfast. One of the good things about getting up early consistently is having extra time. Granted, there are also times in the evening where I think it is later than it actually is! Mother Nature got angry that we did not enjoy her spring snow and scared the crap out of Serra and I with her thunderous complaints on Friday before the rain began. I'll take all the rain we can get to avoid wildfires this summer. What a week it was! I know it was only one, but it felt so much longer....
Good Morning and Happy Sunday! I should have looked at the calendar. There is no way Colorado can get away with spring sliding in so easily without the April snow that always happens this week. The view is foggy, and patches of green are poking up through the white snow. Yes, I said snow. Thankfully not as much as I have seen in years past and the roads are dry instead of icy. I shook as much as I could out of my tree friend yesterday, so I hope he is alright. What trouble did we cause this week? Amanda had quite the roller coaster. Frustrations with the capstone group, approval from the professors, good news for the showcase, a...
Good morning and Happy Sunday! My little corner of the Fort is bright and sunny so far today and I am loving all of the green I see. My tree friend out front has declared that spring is here has sprouted tiny leaves all over. I even got to sleep with the window open last night without freezing myself out. Maybe a few more weeks will see the lilacs around town return. What did we do this week? It is more of the same with a bit of a different flavor for Amanda. It is the final push to the end of the year and the final push to the end of the degree. Capstone is still a bear as...
Good Morning and Happy Sunday! I am still trying to shake off the cobwebs of crash and burn kind of sleep that I didn't expect after waking up at 430 this morning. I am glad the wind didn't reek too much havoc here last night as my tree friend out front has decided spring is here with lots of buds. Mother Nature isn't too sure yet as the temperatures were all over the place. What did we do this week? Amanda has been taking care of RA duties with being on call once last week and over the weekend. Somehow the freshmen this year have been extremely well behaved and not caused any trouble. Very different from her summer session...
