I Spring!

That’s what I kept thinking yesterday when I went outside, opened windows, smelled the fresh air, read a book in the sun.  How very, very nice!

I enjoyed my day without teacher responsibilities.  During the day, I accomplished a number of cleaning chores I’d been putting off: vacuuming, sweeping the kitchen floor, cleaning the counters, starting various organizational projects. I also goofed off, wrote some, read some, and watched a little television in there, too. 

Eric got home about 4:30.  I was reading outside when he arrived.  So we chatted outside for a while which was so nice!  We grilled steaks for dinner.  YUM-MY!  And grilling makes for such easy clean up after dinner, too, which I love!  After dinner, we both did something we hate doing: Eric went and got a haircut, I cleaned the bathrooms.  I was finishing up just as he drove back in the garage.  Perfect timing!  Then we spent the rest of the evening watching television together. 

Oh…last night, I woke up about 5:30 and realized the bed was shaking.  It stopped while I was trying to figure out what Eric was doing.  Turns out he was awake, thinking the same thing about me.  And it wasn’t either of us.  There was an Illinois earthquake that we felt move our bed in Columbus!  Crazy, huh?

Anyway, today is Friday (in case you’d missed that! )  I have normal classes and a faculty meeting at 10:00.  Then I’ll be heading home as quick as I can so we can get around and head out for our weekend.  We’ll be driving to WV tonight for Eric’s friend’s wedding tomorrow, and we decided to stay two nights there to get a whole weekend away.  Yesterday, Eric found out that there’s going to be a guys’ gathering with the groom after the rehearsal dinner tonight, so I’m sure he’ll go to that.  Baring any major traffic issues, we should arrive just about in time.  I don’t know what the rest of the weekend will hold (other than the wedding), but it should be good.

Happy Friday!
