Good Morning and Happy Sunday! Early today, and not just because the Steelers play at 730 am. Sometimes having a reliable body clock is an annoying thing. Most weeks I am able to sleep in on the weekends to my lofty 6 am, not so this time around. My body said the usual 430 is the time to be awake so I'm here. I suppose I will be able to go out and see the sunrise soon. What have we been up to this week? Serra spent part of the week studying for her Organic chem exam that I hope went well. She and her roommate treated themselves to never ending pasta bowl at Olive Garden this weekend. How someone...
Good Morning and Happy Sunday! It's quiet so far up on the lake today with the crisp hint of fall in the air. Makes sense as today is the autumnal equinox and it felt like the sun set early last night. I'm sure the lake will be busy again later today with the air show and the USAF Thunderbirds in town. What did we do this week? Serra had another good week of class and labs. Crime scene lab was spent learning different methods of taking fingerprints and analyzing them. She is still loving organic chem and analytical is the bane of all of the students. Considering their understanding of concepts has been so universal, I think it comes down...
Good Morning and Happy Sunday! The sun is either slow to wake up today or is hiding behind some clouds, not wanting to greet the day. It might have something to do with the raindrops I see on the patio. Maybe cooler temperatures are finally here to stay. What did we do this week? Serra is turning into quite the busy bee on campus with adding a job to her plate. She is now a part of the Global Initiative department that promotes the college's study abroad program. It's ten hours a week, assisting at events and answering questions in the office and via email. I would wonder if it were too much if I didn't know how I am...
Good Morning and Happy Sunday! We turned the calendar to a new month last Monday and I think Mother Nature decided to take her foot off the heat pedal. I don't want to say Fall is here as that implies an overwhelming amount of pumpkin spice in every product imaginable. Instead, let's just say I am enjoying the cooler temperatures. What have we been up to this week? Serra is settling into her classes. As usual there is always one class that loves to bake her noodle. This semester it is analytical chemistry. Thankfully she is not alone. She and fellow classmates have already set up study sessions to work together on it. One thing I love about her college...
Good Morning and Happy Sunday! A cloudless bright blue sky is greeting me outside the patio door today. Thankfully the heat of summer is finally winding down and evenings are cooling off which helps sleep. Amanda having the window open on the other side of the place is just the right amount to keep both of us comfortable. I think the forecast is calling for clear skies today. What did we do this week? Monday feels ages ago! Serra has spent the week reconnecting with college friends and settling into the groove of campus life. I'm told homework for next week is already done and she is disappointed about not having class tomorrow with the holiday. She now plans to...
