Whoa.

I can't quite believe it. I'm essentially "done" until exams come back in.

Over the weekend and Monday morning, I updated the first two exams. This morning I rewrote the third one. The ecology papers are all graded, the soils lab books are all graded. What remains of this week is listening to (and grading, but that's not so hard) the rest of the ecology presentations, and doing one last class of soils (on soil taxonomy) and one last class of gen bio (and, as we'd say on CPAAG, it's penis day: human reproductive system).

I'm also done for the semester with piano lessons. I won't stop playing completely (and I am taking summer lessons), but there's less pressure to get that huge amount of practicing in each day (my teacher didn't give me any new assignments; she said "a break is good" but stopped at saying "I don't care if you don't practice between now and then") .

I do have one more soil sample to sort (and since the rash is mostly gone, I think I'll do that tomorrow afternoon) and of course there's always research work and reading....but it's strange to think of a few days with no grading hanging over my head.

So, I think I'm going to devote this evening, and Friday evening (I have a meeting Thursday) to relaxing. Maybe doing more work on the quilts...I have two that are almost done. (The tops, that is).

Saturday, I'm unsure. My usual plan is to go to McKinney, but right now the main attraction of there (considering all the shops that have closed) are the two quilt shops...and tidying my sewing room reveals to me the real horror of how much SABLE (stash acquired beyond life expectancy) I actually have.

I might go to Denison and go antiquing, I don't know. I do think I want to take Saturday as a 'go out and do something' day.
