Grading now completed, I will be returning to my books!<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">I am hearing<\/span> construction noises&#8211;there are 1500 new apartments being built across the street (sigh).  Also, a cricket that&#8217;s determinedly chirping in the front hall closet and has so far eluded the bug-eating kitties in our home.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Learning all the time<\/span> about how to balance my work with that of the other members of the household, even as I support friends and am gentle with my body during my continued healing.  It&#8217;s a lot to do!<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">I am thankful<\/span> that I received an ever-so-kind reply from my query to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.friendlycrossways.com\/\">Friendly Crossways<\/a> about staying there during part of my time in Massachusetts (a Quaker farm&#8211;what could be a better spot for me?).  Also, thankful for the many Boston-based friends that I&#8217;ll soon be seeing (yay!!)<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">I am hoping<\/span> that all will go well this afternoon when I see my doctor about my leg.  Keeping fingers crossed that she will agree that I am improving.  Also, hoping that CatGirl&#8217;s fever will break soon.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">From the kitchen<\/span> this morning came steel-cut oats a la John (yum) with milk and a squirt of agave nectar, they are a perfect morning treat.  (There are also fruit flies coming from the kitchen, but we won&#8217;t talk &#8217;bout that&#8230;)<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">I am creating<\/span> peace by breathing deeply and facing fear.  That, and also parenting the two most amazing teenagers on the planet.  Seriously.  I am so pleased that I am not going at this alone&#8211;my kids have fab role models and teachers to mentor them along their way.  <\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Bringing beauty to my home <\/span>with the two vases of cut roses on my kitchen table.  My &#8220;Mon Cheri&#8221; rose is favoring me with the most gorgeous pink-to-red blossoms and &#8220;Vavoom&#8221; is a peachy ruffled delight.  Because I&#8217;m fighting this cold\/flu, my kids cut the roses for me when they watered the garden this weekend.  My family is always so willing to &#8220;bring the garden to me&#8221; when I am too weary to go there myself.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Around the house<\/span>, we are reeling just a bit from the back-to-school schedule.  It&#8217;s going to take awhile for the new rhythms to settle in.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Outside my window <\/span>it looks like it will be a brighter day than the weekend, when it was mostly overcast (oh, my garden has been so confused by this weird August\/September weather).  The spiders have nearly taken over my back porch in the past few weeks.  Perhaps today (or later this week) I will clean out some of the cobwebs. {I am hoping that no one besides the spiders is outside my window is looking in, given my current state of disrobedness)<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">I am thinking<\/span> about my Quaker community.  I missed Meeting yesterday due to the flu that CatGirl and I are enduring.  I&#8217;m currently sitting on several committees and not always finding time to be proactive in my efforts as the Clerk of the Peace &#038; Social Concerns committee.  Hoping to do better with that in the future.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">One of my favorite things<\/span> is that John is back to focusing on finishing his Master&#8217;s thesis.  I love his topic and know that he will do a fine job with it.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">A few plans for the rest of the week<\/span>&#8230;I have numerous medical appointments this week (everything from an MRI to dental work to alterations on my prosthesis).  Also, I&#8217;ll be continuing my commute to the Huntington  on three of the weekdays.  I am excited for what&#8217;s ahead on the calendar and am just hoping hoping hoping that I can move through the days with confidence and strength.<\/p>\n<p>I would love to take a peek at <span style=\"font-style:italic;\">your<\/span> daybook.
