I will need a vacation to recover from this weekend with its endless to-do list and scheduled events occurring in rapid succession. I have no idea what happened but this whole semester is unusually intense with four trips still to happen and a mountain of work and social obligations.
Next Fall, on the other hand, is my sabbatical, and I’m looking forward to not seeing anybody and not answering any emails for months.
I’ve done barely any reading this weekend, which just goes to show how insane it’s been. But the church picnic went extremely well. My shrimp salad was a big hit, and our family won at bingo 4 times.
How is everybody doing? Any important news? Exciting developments?
Excitement, you betcha, I have been reaped again. The mother raccoon and her four babes ate all the figs weeks ago, and most of the grapes. And what they didn’t take, they fought over with the bear, a big male about the size of a volkswagan. I stayed out of the scrap ;-D
