1. 3 days of uninterrupted Aaron-y goodness. Usually he works until well after I am asleep, so I see precious little of him. And then I went on my trip. So I was in serious Aaron deficit. But today is the third day of spending all day with him. Activities: hiking, visiting friends, watching Dollhouse, reading next to each other, and others you might be able to imagine but shouldn't if we happen to be related.
2. Seeing best friends again. The visit really did involve a bit too much wine (all the children were asleep, so we were in the clear), a lot of loud and dramatic statements (mostly from me), quite a bit of gossip, and Cake (the band, though the food would have been nice too).
3. Having time that stretches before me as yet unfilled (this is both a good things and a terrifying one). No school this semester, only teaching one class again, so what will I do? Here's the list I thought of while taking a bath (another good thing): More weekday time with Livy (including homeschool coop which I don't usually get to do), get back to my French, Spanish, and Greek, read hard books again (when I am in school, all my free reading has to be lighter, but no longer, tonight I will start Moll Flanders), exercise more (I really need to make myself lift weights), learn to make reduction sauces like Richard Nikoley, and actually keep the house clean and meals cooked (that kind of fell by the way side during the weeks before finals).
