Taking A Break

I am in hiding. Self imposed. Required. This is the last week of classes with one more week of final exams, and I am grading 75 freshmen research essays. The grading will take me all week and most of next week, and while I am taking pictures here and there, I don't have time to blog. I am, however, reading all of your postings and commenting here and there just to let you know that I am paying attention. I'll catch up in time. Until then, I will keep visiting you. cheers

    Thanks for the note. Was wondering what's happening. So it is not the garden that has kept you busy. Thanks for coming by every now and then despite your busy schedule. Looking forward to view your photos...

    Yikes! I feel for you! I have six weeks left and a multi-genre research project looming. I am so burned out from grading. I wish you lots of stamina. Soon, you'll be a bit less burdened! Hang in there!

    Work plays havoc on our personal lives lol! Does this mean you'll soon be on summer vacation (the plus side). Keep the coffee or dandelion tea on tap & hope the essays are good reading. Kelli

    Busy time for you. My daughter is putting in long hours at her job with the University of Connecticut as the school year ends. Hope you are free soon!
