More Soon . . . AGAIN

I know I promised more in a few days a few several days ago, but you’ll just have to hang in there with me.  I’ve reduced my IN box to about 20 mails, but I’m in the last of a stretch of “hell weeks,” and just need to survive for one more week.

This weekend, I have 2 classes which need term papers, final exams, and portfolios marked and term grades figured and turned in.  For tomorrow.  Tomorrow I have a workshop class which needs their essays commented on, and Tuesday I have a final composition lecture for a group of 200 non-native writers . . . and I’m not at all certain what I want to try and cram into that last 2 hour block of information and insight.  Wednesday said 200+ is submitting short argument essays which need responses by Monday, and Thursday is a literature lesson for 4 small groups (less than 20, usually).

I sat down and looked at my workload this term, and somehow I seem to have come up with about 120% . . .  I’m an idiot.

My Master Spinner workbook is still sitting in the living room and still waiting for a couple of last pages of notes before it goes into the box, and they’re simply not going to get done this week either.

I DID take a break to ply off some yarn which has been on the Rose for nearly 2 months, and will post that next time.  (Plying is easier on the hands than spinning.)

In other words, I promise that I WILL be back.  Just hang tight.

In the meantime, here’s a little eye candy . . .

A typical roadside shot of the hills in the Painted Desert:

(Somehow, that really should be subtitled “God paints.”)

In one of the buildings at Mesa Verde:

And a hazy shot of the Grand Canyon from the South Rim:
