Post from the past

(Insomnia has once again driven me to the computer.  I fear I have forgotten how to blog.  But I did find a couple of drafts from the last few months that were never finished and posted.  Here's one from May.... Actually - I'm getting the writing itch again...but I can't figure out where to jump in.  My thoughts tonight seem a little to much after such a long writing absence.)

I haven't blogged my brain for so long.  And I really don't have time today.  It's mid-May, which means this household is zooming along at the speed of life.  I have heads of hair to wash and lessons to teach and dishes to do and laundry to fold and suitcases to pack, puppies to feed and floors to sweep and (from the sounds I'm hearing) bottoms to beat.

But I am still here, still kicking.  Having lots of thoughts and tons of bloggable days, but not lots of down time for recording those days.

I had a pressing thought when I started this post, but the sibling obnoxiousness is distracting me and I see that my lessons are approaching very quickly. 

But just for now, I'll share a happy thought...

Last night David and I had an absolutely wonderful date to celebrate....He got a "clear pass" on all four of his PhD comps!  It is possible to pass comps at various levels, some requiring or recommending further study.  But he passed at the highest level possible on all.

Congrats, hon.  I'm your number one fan.

We went to Maggianos to celebrate - it was an absolutely wonderful evening.
