A five-minute summary of my life.
- My house is full of spiders
- My counter is full of dishes
- Charlotte has been really hard to put to bed lately
- I have to read and be able to speak about 20 pages of academic literature before tomorrow
- Submitting final grades for the semester has had some unforeseen issues
- Car issues
- Laundry piled up
- I had to pull a tick off my kid yesterday.
- General extreme house messiness and dirtiness.
Happy Things:
- My tiny little container garden is flourishing.
- Presentation thing at school went well yesterday
- Micah brought Charlotte to yesterday's presentation thing just to support me. This was a really big deal and almost made me cry.
- Spoiling my kiddo with ice cream sundaes on warm Summer evenings.
- I get to participate in a conference tomorrow and Friday with national figures in my field. Feeling really blessed professionally to have this opportunity.
- Excited about this week's CSA food. I'll get around to posting about it eventually.
- Loving my little family more every day.
- Grateful for a partner in life who supports me when I struggle and understands the unique demands of the academic work I'm doing.
- House guests Sarah, Jeremy, and Caden arriving in a week!
- Playing at Lowe's Home Improvement with my family.
Life is a little crazy right now, but good!
