Maybe I should just rename my blog. Something like “One Million Reasons Betsy Doesn’t Blog Regularly”. That would be appropriate. Since my last set of excuses, work stuff has gotten sorted out (which required quite a few hours of meetings to finally settle on, and will probably be completely reworked again this week), but it [...]
If I Only Had A Brain
I haven’t posted in quite a while. That is in part because work has been a bit strange lately; in part because Matt was home for a very brief period last weekend and most of the time was spent getting him and his stuff ready to turn around and leave again; and in part because [...]
Friday Update
I’m exhausted. We forgot to get something to give as a thank-you for the family that took care of Shiloh while we were gone. I. Am. Exhausted. I can only imagine how Matt feels. He needs to function today and all weekend, whereas it’s more or less okay that I’m mostly staring into space.
‘Delinquent’ is My Middle Name
That’s right. My birth certificate actually reads “Elizabeth Delinquent Wright”. What can I say? My parents clearly had a lot of foresight on the issue. In my defense, I haven’t done much worth talking about in the last two and a half weeks or so. There’s been work and church and Bible studies and possible [...]
And You Thought I Was Dead
I’m alive. I did drop off the face of the earth for a while, or at least the blog. I have found several great YouTube videos and read several books this week, but nothing of great consequence has happened. I wrote some more new material for the manuscript, but not as much as I had [...]
Three things:
1) The design I settled on had some very strange issues that I don’t have time to figure out how to fix right now, so we are settling for Choice #2. Yay birdie! 2) I don’t want to go to bible study tonight, but I’m going because my group is in charge of coffee snacks [...]
Friday Friday
Things are looking up this morning, oddly enough. Aside from the fact that in the half-sleeping stage between when Matt’s alarm went off and when mine went off, I kept thinking today was Sunday, it’s gone darn well. It’s $1 breakfast burrito day at our favorite coffee shop, so we went out for breakfast. Crazy! [...]
Oops, Sorry for the Blackout
I finished residency, graduated without problems (no slipping and falling onstage for me!), had a lovely dinner with family, and was terribly glad to get to sleep Wednesday night. Thursday morning, because of a freak traffic jam (no apparent cause for the holdup OR the return to normal driving speeds), we were an hour late [...]
Residency Update
I have, as usual, completely failed in my goal to take more pictures at this residency. But I presented my thesis Saturday night and did my teaching module this morning, and both went very well. Tonight my two critique partners defend their theses (Matt has already done his; Sherry still to come) and then we’ll [...]
My Head Has Not Exploded Yet
Just checking in to say that the Open House and Christmas Extravaganza went off more or less without a hitch Saturday evening. We had a good time. We had too much food, but we had a good time. And we just might burn that stupid jigsaw puzzle. I mailed Christmas gifts to my family members [...]
