A Sampling of This Week

Following the advice of professional...I guess I can say professional, blogger Ree Drummond, aka The Pioneer Woman, I am attempting to blog more regularly. I may not always have much to say, but at least it lets whoever reads this know I'm alive. So here we go, a really brief recap of this past week:

It is Friday of the second, yes, ONLY the second, week of school here at Drew Theological School. My. brain. is. fried. We didn't even have classes on Monday because of Labor Day! I got home last night and the front of my head felt SOOOO heavy...I thought my head would plop down into my soup bowl. But that didn't happen, and I really enjoyed the blue cheese celery soup that Evan made for supper. It was delicious, along with homemade bread I had made last week.

We had some good food this. Portabello burgers on Monday, risotto on Wednesday...I don't remember what Tuesday was, even though I cooked it. Oh! Yes I do! I made the eggplant ricotta pizza we love so much. With an eggplant from our own garden. It was delicious- how could I have forgotten? Oh well, just shows you where my brain is today.

I had to cancel the kick-off event for the youth that was supposed to be tonight into tomorrow. That was a huge source of stress, emotional fatigue, and disappointment. But, I'm feeling better now.

I have a bunch of homework to do this weekend, and two programs to plan and lead on Sunday, but it will all get done somehow. I'm really excited about one of my homework assignments this weekend. More about that later.

Alrighty, time to work more on campus visits, then have lunch with some lovely people. : )

Peace!
