Hmm, what to do with myself....

I usually think that blogs outlining the contents of a person's day can be quite boring, but today, I think I'll indulge myself. Here goes...

7:30 - wake up, tie up loose ends

12:30 - turn in thesis

12:35 - eat magnum

12:45 - go shopping

I've been writing a lot lately, so I'll leave it at that. Good day to you!

Long awaited Germany photos

And some family pics

Your mother was a hamster, and your father smelt of elderberries!

Lost in the maze, good thing we had muffins.

Time and space

Yesterday marked the end of camp tayside 2006. I was just thinking today that it's interesting how much more attached I am to it than I ever was to the camp I attended while growing up. Perhaps it's being in the countryside rather than a college campus, being older and having a fuller understanding of what it all means, or the old paradox of teaching being the ultimate learning experience. Whatever the reason, it's been a great week and I'm thankful for the opportunity to have shared in a bit of it.

Today marks laundry day.

Tomorrow marks two months remaining of my time in Scotland. I do look forward to seeing my family and friends again, but I find it difficult to think about the coming year. It holds a great number of uncertainties, and at times I downright dread being back at square one in figuring out what to do with myself! But I suppose, as they say, 'whoever watches the wind will not plant; whoever looks at the clouds will not reap.' So, time to get on with it.

My dissertation (that is, thesis for the yanks) is due in about 3 weeks, so I apologize if I fall into a black hole for a wee while, but I will try to get some pictures from camp and my family's recent visit posted soon!
