I’m having trouble remembering the last time I attended a wedding, but this week is bookended with them: one took place on Sunday afternoon and the other will be celebrated on Saturday evening. That’s a whole lot of happiness to get to watch, and it’s an honor to have such proximity to new beginnings. Huzzah to the recently and soon-to-be hitched!
This week I had a biography project to brainstorm, a personal narrative to draft for class, a case study to ponder, poems to read, journal pages to fill, library books to borrow, meeting minutes to write up, and surveys to check. Oh, and a job to do. Things should slow down a little this week (after Tuesday) but then start to pick up again (perhaps on Wednesday). But since everyone in the house has been getting their sleep and taking their meds, it all feels doable (so far).
(Having written that sentence, I then sneezed three times in a row. Uh-oh. I’d better take another vitamin.)
At least I won’t run out of things to do anytime in the near future.
Last week I received, through inter-library loan, six more copies of the textbook I’m inspecting for annotations. Nothing I’ve seen compares (so far) to the first book I looked at, but it doesn’t hurt to keep looking. I just need a little time to log in the markings that I find, and the next step may be to document the markings by making high-resolution scans at the library. Oh, rats. I have to make another trip to the library? However shall I cope?
Knitwise, I’m standing pat on the un-knitted wrist warmers. Everything is in the project bag, and the project bag is sitting on the floor in the same place it sat last week. There is just too much going on for me to concentrate on knitting right now, even though in a few weeks my hands will start to feel the approaching cold. Other campus knitters are saying things like “winter break” and “next summer?” when we cross paths, so I suspect that I’m not the only one wondering what happened to my free time.
This is a short post, but it’s been a long and tiring week.
