Life is good - summer, warm, humid - lots of time to relax... eager to visit family in Oregon soon...doing a LOT of reading... :)

Whew!  I had forgotten how chaotic Saturday is during the school year!  Papers to read, tests to mark, grades to record, lesson plans - plus the house stuff that just piles up until the weekend. But, the good news (and it's all good, really...) is that at 5:30, as we were walking the dog, my husband suggested that we be finished working for the day, go into town, and have a nice relaxing dinner. That's exactly what we did; went to a favorite restaurant, spent two hours savoring each other's company and some yummy food, and came home to relax some more. He is a very wise man...

I have always aimed to do some type of journaling on a semi-daily basis. While I will still write the old-fashioned way (we tend to write the way we learned...) I'm going to post regular doings, musings, and scattered non-sequitors here ---

So, what did I do today? Not much in the exciting realm, but it's been a good day (as most of my days are). Woke up a bit later than usual (a treat - on weekdays I get up at 4:30am) Took a morning walk (there is a great walking trail near our house) and had a leisurely breakfast, then got some household tasks finished (laundry, cleaning - needs to be done!)  Changed my webpage in preparation for school tomorrow, posting reminders & homework & such. See, I told you - not very exciting! :) 

Since I'm new to Zaadz, I've been playing in your playground, lurking on some forums, adding to my profile, creating this blog...
Rest of the day - some reading, dinner at Mom's - think I'll walk. It's about 2 miles, a really pretty walk, and the weather is wonderful!
