Summer Plans

I just realized I have two weeks vacation to take before the end of June. This means I likely will not get quite as much work as I had planned in the next month or so. I will take a week off for moving and random days in May. Plus I will gone the second week of August and a little more going to SAA and visiting Rafia (AGAIN--she better feel privileged.)I am also dogsitting and housesitting through the first week of July, giving me a great deal of time to get the house in order before really moving. I've been camping out the last couple of nights to get away from the loud and smoky environment I've been living in for the last few months. Freedom is HERE!

I need to get working on my poster for SAA--better start that this week so it is not last minute.

I now own a house!

I never thought I would buy a house, but here I am. Pictures if you scroll down one post. I will post more pictures later, after I actually move in perhaps.

I enjoyed going to Earlham's commencement activities yesterday.

Now that most students are gone, it will be interesting to see if I get more or less work done on long-term projects. Last summer (my first) we had quite a few genealogists and "outside" researchers visit, but overall I think it will be less hectic. And no evening and weekend shifts all summer! Yay! (although I think it is good we have those hours and I try not complain too much about them--it is a good time for students to get work done, and that is very important!).
