So…look at me writing again so soon!  I guess I never realized how much fun it is to get comments!   Alan, I’ll try not to get too far ahead of you!


Last night, Eric and I went to the Steven Curtis Chapman concert.  It was good, but I was very tired, and it was VERY long.  Kristie was right, Karen…SCC does talk too much!  But the music was good, and I got cheap cds!


Today I am grading in my office.  I have only FIVE more portfolios to grade…and I save the ones I know will be good until last so they don’t take as long as the others! Yeah!!!  Of course, I still have to grade bonus work, but I don’t spend very much time on that at all!  I figure it isn’t going to do much for most of their grades, but they think it’s cool that I offer it.  And it gets them to go to the Writing Center and the “cultural” activities on campus, so I figure it has to do them some good anyway!


I have a problem with my office.  When I walked in this morning, it was 50 degrees in here!  Two outside walls and a very bad heating system make it impossible to keep my office warm!  And I get so annoyed with those emails trying to guilt us into not using our space heaters…what else am I supposed to do here?  After 30 minutes in my office without a heater, I can’t write or type without gloves (and I can’t really write/type with them either ).  As it is, I never take my coat off…oh well…I guess I’ll just keep running my heater!  Besides, after 4 hours of using my heater, my office is a balmy 60 degrees!


I guess I don’t have much else exciting to tell you.  Mom isn’t at CU today, so I had to eat lunch by myself.  Oh well, I guess that was God’s way of getting me back to grading faster!  So I suppose I should get back to grading…

  1. I would so NOT be in that office right now if I were you. I could never get anything done. We always complain about it being cold here, too, so I keep a blanket in my office. And right now, I have my heating pad, too, for my back, so that helps a lot!

    I seem to remember that about SCC, too!

    It is rather cold around these parts last night. Funny, though, Cyndi and I were the only ones complaining about it. The boys didn’t seem to notice!

  2. I think comments are fun, too! It gives a little more excitement to being on the computer.
    I don’t know if I could work at all in an office that cold. We have the heat set at 66 right now in our house and I think it’s a little chilly. I’m going to have to bump it back up to 68 probably. It’ll be down for a few days while we’re gone, so we can afford to have a little extra heat now!

  3. I can sympathize with you on the cold office!  Not with an office, but with my house!  Propane heat is one thing I will be VERY glad to get rid of when we move!  We forget to check it regularly, and then we run out.  We’re out right now, actually.  It gets pretty chilly, but at least Kyle’s home now to keep a fire burning!  When he gets that fire going in the wood-burning stove, it gets so toasty in the house that sometimes we have to open the windows!  The stove is one thing I will definitely miss when we move!
