My Mom (Granna) came this weekend to help us through a very busy time.
Paul has been working lots of hours so he won’t have to use so much vacation time next week. (We leave Tuesday for Michigan, where I have a conference. From there, we leave Friday morning for DC, to attend Kevin and Amy’s (Paul’s sister) wedding in Fredricksburg, Virginia.
So, Mom and I have spent a lot of time this weekend preparing for the trip. Finding clothes, figuring out what Will, Paul, and I are going to wear, making sure things fit everyone, etc. Never in a thousand years would I have thought this would take so much effort! Mom even gave me a crash course in make-up (I haven’t bought anything besides mascara and powder in over 5 years.)
And in the middle of all of this, I am still trying to finish up classes! I may get by with only one incomplete (Econometrics — difficult data analysis/Stata/regression class)… if I can finish and turn in a paper for another class (Nutrition Analysis). I’m doing my best and must give myself kudos considering I’ve finished two other classes on time after being out for three weeks, but there is still a lot to do and my days of all nighters are long gone. Two incompletes could be the reality… darn that pneumonia bacteria!!
