 |  Just having a good day ...
Yesterday I gave the last two finals and came home to grade. This morning I got up and hit it again, just kept at it in stages, didn't obsess or stress, and by this evening I had finished a stack of tests and papers 9" tall (yes, I measured it!!)  Now all I have to do is enter it into my grading spreadsheets, turn in grades, march in the graduation ceremony on Saturday (anyone wanna see a picture of me in my funny perfesser suit?) and I'm done until the middle of next month (unless you count getting ready for a new class, cleaning the office and resetting everything for a new semester as not done!  )
So I just finished a piece of fresh hot whole wheat bread with butter and peanut butter. The house smells great from the baking bread, and Peanut and I had a SF Blue Bunny chocolate-covered chocolate ice cream bar each.
Life is good! This time last year, I was getting the fixins to start my pre-op liquid diet. What a year it has been!!! Thanks, all, for being part of it!

The Supreme Court may have taken prayer out of the schools, but when I hand out the tests, I still hear some of my students say "Oh, my God!!"
