liminal_space+ My students were so sweet and wonderful yesterday, most telling me they will miss me and love me and all that junk. The ones who didn't say anything? Let it suffice to say their not missing me is fully and completely reciprocated.
+ After work, we all met up at a diner and ate all sorts of bad food that tasted far too good. Fried pickles! French fries! Fried fish! I was feeling all sorts of nasty for the rest of the day. Ugh. No more of that!
+ Last night was a bit of the cranky. I didn't have any books to read and couldn't download an e-book from the library due to fines. I WAS MADS. Today we went and took care of junk and I checked out reading material for the next five weeks. On tap:
_The Forgotten Garden_ by Kate Morton
_Cleopatra's Daughter_ by Michelle Moran
_Every Dead Thing_ by John Connolly
_ The Eight_ by Katherine Neville
_Haunt Me Still_ by Jennifer Lee Carrell
I'm excited to start the Carrell novel -- it's the sequel to _Interred with Their Bones_ and I oh-so loved that!
+ Today I'm doing to get some cleaning done, then I plan on spending the rest of the day with my glasses on and a book in my hand. Maybe I can get husband to make me some iced tea, too. HEAVEN!
+ Gratuitous kid pic:
She was dirty and found a super sweet shaft of sunlight to stand in. Cool.
+ Next week is full-on cleaning with a bit of super rest thrown in. Husband/kid are doing a Disney trip without me. While they're gone, I'm going to read, clean, go out with friends, swim, write, and decompress from the year. I so need it!
+ Week after next, kid starts summer science camps and it will be back to the gym for me. Woot and fun! =D
As an aside, I have to say that I harbor no love for obsession of any type. A happy life is a well-rounded life and a well-rounded life means you don't get stuck in a rut.
