Happy day


My tulips are coming up dried out this year. Most of them look tired on the day they bloom. It was a dry, warm, Winter. 

But there is always beauty in Spring.

I'm so happy to say that I finished all my classes yesterday. I read all of these books this year. Have mercy on my soul! And I have written many ,many papers. I still have to take the Praxis, but am waiting until June, when I will have time to study. 
I could not have done post-grad work without:
Google -- big words, big ideas, research at my finger tips.
Callie--- she is an excellent editor, knows her APA, and a great cheerleader. 
Facebook -- I was in a cohort for this program and they live all over the state of Idaho. We had a Facebook group. They answered questions, talked smack about how hard some of these assignments were and connected in a way that would not be possible otherwise during a pandemic.
And of course, 
the BSU help line -- They know how to help me with all my technical problems.  God bless them. 

Looking forward to a new after school agenda. Not sure what it is, but it will be awesome.

Magic Valley Symphony

Wes and I finally made it to the Magic Valley Symphony. I was pleasantly surprised by how incredible they sounded. They had a guest conductor, Jose Luis Egiluz, from Spain. All the music they did was also from Spain. They had a local acoustic guitarist, who did an excellent job with his solos. Missing from the performance was Music Director, Conductor, Ted Hadley. He had to go the High School district championship basketball game with the Pep Band. That would be his day job, not to mention the job that has a paycheck attached to it. Going to the symphony is like being at the circus for me. I just can't decide what to watch. This was a group of about 70 musicians. Some as old as my mother, while others were as young as my daughter. The concert was followed by a reception with punch and brownies. All of this for $8. All in all, a very pleasant evening. We started going to the Symphony in Stockton. Beginning band has killing our sense of what music was, so, I decided we deserved to he...

To Tired to be Retired

Image
Well, it finally felt like a retirement week. It was good. I did end up sick and had to visit the doctor.  Truth is I'm a little unsettled about Trump meeting with Putin and I can't help but wonder what will happen this week.  Anyone who knows me knows that I think Putin owns Trump. I'm not sure what happened but I pray that those two haven't  started WWIII.   I don't usually write about politics here, but it's on my mind.  God bless us all.

Last Week....for Wes

Image
It seems weird not to be going to work tomorrow, but  I'm okay with that.  I usually write my favorite Summer memories, however, I have some more Summer left in me.  So here is what we did this week. We started this kitchen re-do years ago.  To be honest, I wasn't sure about the paint, but with the tile, I felt better.  The best thing we did was change the lights. What a difference it made.  To be honest, Wes did the work. Me, I took walks and enjoyed not worrying about ending Summer. I do have some ideas for that post, but not today.  Good time of year to walk around town. Or sit on the deck and read...    Let's hope this retirement thing works because I don't want to go back to work....
