Grandpa bought a boat!

My dad bought a boat last week and has gone out on the water many times since. We were lucky enough to have some time to go out on Sunday, and we had a really great time! The boys loved it, and my dad was joyful sharing it with us. He had a grin on his face the whole time. I know he has always wanted a boat, so it was nice to see him so happy. It's amazing how different our beautiful city looks from the water ways. It could have been a Mediterranean city from the perspective we had! It was amazing. San Diego is such a beautiful place to live, and that beauty just continues out into the ocean around us. We had a great time and the boat is just so cool. I wasn't afraid of falling out at all, really. Not even when my dad let my middle son do donuts in the water. Nope. Not scared at all. Yeah, okay, maybe a little bit.

Workshop

Today, I taught the first workshop of the semester on campus. I was very nervous because I was doing it on my own this year. It actually went very well. For those of you who are interested, it was on Run Ons and Comma Splices. Interesting, right? I think I did a pretty good job! Hopefully, when I teach the one on Thursday, it will go even smoother! And after that, I will have more free time. I may even get my Lit homework done early. I may even put those two dressers from IKEA together! The possibilities are limitless! I look forward to blogging more often, one day. I would like to find some extra time for myself and my family. Extra time. What does that even mean??? Spare time. Like it's just laying around and I can pick it up. I have my middle son's conference in an hour, and then I have my math class until 6. Maybe when I get home, I'll find some of that extra time on the floor. I'll be looking for it.
Peace out,
Mom
