April 24th already????????

Hey all - Life is so busy! Boys have baseball and lacrosse, concerts and mid-tris. Choir and WHOS fill me with good friends and SPC is always challenging and never, ever dull! My true friends and I sneak in time on the weekends and that always brings great happiness and peace.
Track has started and we are doing 3-5 miles tues/thursdays. Volleyball we're in the playoffs tomorrow night.  My classes are in the final stretch and Art Crawl is this weekend.

Books I have read in times of procrastination or as Greg says, "pulling a Leahy" :
The Tale of Despereaux - DiCamillo is a master storyteller.
The Night Circus - I thought this was magical!! And made me remember true love.......

Short Stories:
A Rose for Emily - Faulkner  -GREAT! Wicked ending....
The Open Boat - Crane
The Fall of the House of Usher -Poe

I loved this historical fiction work about my favorite statue!

Also read, Tiger Rising.  Sweet and nostalgic + tigers and dysfunctional kids with heart.

Back Again

Time does past quickly! I cannot believe I haven't posted since the 19th.  That was when I was on vacation of course : )

The best things I have read are:
"Babylon Revisited" by Fitzgerald.  I loved it.  Sad, nostalgic and sentimental.
"The Things They Carried" was also pretty cool.  Vietnam in the first person.
Margaret Atwood's, "Death By Landscape" was eerie and disturbing.

Loving Mad Men and seeing January Jones again.  Great story line.

Scheffer volleyball coaching and track starting next week.

Holy week at church and singing with the best choir.

Finishing off midterms at school - SO HARD!!!!

Getting ready for ART CRAWL at the AZ.........
