Another whirlwind holiday celebrated and gone! Hubby and I headed to Indiana to see the family this Thanksgiving. As usual, it was a good restful trip, but seemed to go by too fast. As one holiday is buried and another one is being born, somewhere in there is the end of a semester. One more week to teach! Two more weeks of classes! Then, a blissful month off. As winter approaches, and approach it does--we had snow today--I have a few goals set for the winter break. I am writing them in
blogstone so they become more real, and so people can help hold me accountable.
Goals for Winter Break
- Read the last Harry Potter book (Sshh--I don't know what happens!)
- Write poems for my thesis
- Correspond via written letter with some pals
- Finish editing a friend's book
- Learn how to relax
- Seek a more intentional relationship with God (Hmm... what is the state of my life when Harry Potter is first on the list!?)
- Plan a syllabus for the two courses I'm teaching next semester
- Read ahead for one of my grad courses: The Comic Novel
- Try to stop making lists
This is not a complete list since I have about 15 other inane things swirling around in my consciousness that are begging to be added. However, those are the
big things I've listed. Now, it's official: I'm held accountable.

Ha! You crack me up.
Don't the Holidays just seem to get shorter and shorter every year! Weird!
Sara, you must read that book! That is all I will say!
