First Official Day of Summer Vacation
I submitted my final grades this morning around 11 o'clock, and yesterday the faculty concluded our three-day post-session, so I am now officially on summer vacation. Unfortunately getting to this point has been fraught with complications (some my own fault, others not) and disappointment. Where to begin?
In addition to my long list of things to do on Ariel, I now have pressing matters to deal with at home. We're preparing to move to a new home, so beyond all of the paperwork and stress that comes with that, we also need to get our current home ready to rent. To complicate matters even further, I smashed up our new (to us) 2003 Camry thanks to a deer. So, now we're back to the old cars that were the reason for purchasing the new Camry! Six thousand dollars and a couple of weeks and the Camry should be out of the shop. My disappointment is tempered by family and friends who tell me the accident could have been a lot worse (I'm sure the deer would disagree).
Enough complaining; we're blessed to be able to move and I'm happy to be alive. This too shall pass.
