Lots of hurrying to do lots of things...it is all around us, this atmosphere of hustle and bustle. Everyone talks about the economy, the cutting back, the worry over jobs, but I found no evidence of those things at the Montgomery Mall in North Wales, PA yesterday. I did find fantastic buys, and from driving up here I know that this time the gas was the least amount it has been in many years. So, maybe there is a bit less being made by the retailers and the oil companies. So the shoppers are spending less, but maybe the prices have been over-inflated for quite some time now?
No tussle in the hustle and bustle for me. I am looking forward to the birth of the Lord, and a New Year ahead full of possibility, hope, and loving kindness. I wish loving kindness for you today. "Love is the answer," says Todd Rundgren - and I agree.

Class Over!
I am free until August 19th! I took my Brit Lit final two hours ago. My professor, Dr. Norris, recently received his doctorate in Medieval English and it was such a pleasure learning with him. He has a very dry sense of humor which I appreciated. And, like most of the professors I have had at Kennesaw State, his range of knowledge as related to his subject is vast and awe inspiring.
Quick Story: I turned in my paper two days ago - wrote a literary analysis on an aspect of "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight" and I have to admit I was a bit nervous. I know, I always am when it comes to school. He had brought up that ratemyprofessor.com site at our last class, so I went and looked him up AFTER I turned in the paper (oh, and he gave everyone an extension til today and I was sitting there thinking, "No way. I am not doing anything else with this, I'm handing mine in tonight." Which I did.) and then I almost had a heart attack. Some of the reviews said how tough he was grading. UGH! I should have waited and handed it in later. Now I'm doomed. Ok, you're right. I did ok. Got an A! : )
Katie will be here a week from tomorrow - Jen and Paul celebrate their first wedding anniversary that weekend- much happiness and excitement at my nest. Here's a random photo for the ending of this random blog...if anyone wants to know what a bean bag box looks like. Here it is.
Take time to meditate. Or as Todd says, "love is the answer...I've been from shore to shore to shore, if there's a short cut I'd have found it, but there's no easy way around it...love is the answer."
