UFO

Can't sleep. This song will lull me to sleep though - love it.






marking, marking, marking


This semester – okay, I am going to stop right there. I can’t use the word ‘semester’ as it makes me feel too much like I am back in school. And that is a road I no longer have any desire to travel down. This “fall”, I secured a contract to do some marking for a former Professor at the University of Toronto. It is for a course I took while doing my Master’s degree – actually my favourite course. I picked up the first round of papers this past Friday – 45 in total with 18 more to come in this batch. I have to have the 45 completed in two weeks time so needless to say you can guess how I spent my weekend: r-e-a-d-i-n-g! What I didn’t expect is how much I am truly enjoying reading these papers. The majority are very engaging and informative.

So as to alleviate as much stress as possible, I completed all my Christmas shopping prior to this work. I have all the gifts going to PEI packed in my suitcase and ready to go. I have also written out all my Christmas cards. All that is left is to mail the cards and four packages around the first of December. I strive to be as organized as I can possibly be, but curve balls inevitably arise. Such is life.

I did take time this weekend though to pick up these funky glasses at a thrift store. I loves loves loves them!!


Now back to the Walking Dead...
