Here's the sunflower I started this evening so far. H is gone on an overnight job, this afternoon they sent him with a delivery to Bullhead City, AZ about a 6 hour drive one-way. He's gonna spend the night there and drive back tomorrow, so I had the whole evening to crochet! Now it's time for sleep, since I start my work week at 6am tomorrow. Night couch!

Morning couch! Just logged on real quick as I'm waiting for my work apps to all open, to say good morning and send out hugs to though who need/want and good thoughts to the rest.

I am seriously contemplating pretending that I have a GI bug so that I can get out of this family command performance today. None of these people asked me if I wanted to do this, or even if I was available. I know that family is important, but so is rest and so are boundaries.
(Being honest would not go well — that is not how my dad’s side of the family works.) |

In weather from hell, it's snowing there. AKA I wrote my chair about her outing me (basically saying, don't do that again) and while I don't think she understood the issue, she did apologize.
Also I just read the phrase "estranged widow" in a story. I know what the author was getting at, but it still made me chuckle. |

Well, I sent off my apology by email. And I booked a cruise for the week before school starts. It only goes to Bermuda, but it was cheap and I will be pampered and I deserve it.
This group is at our extended campus, and the colleague whom I believe to be involved in this drama, who is always involved in drama with the students there, is also at that campus. I've taught there every year, usually 2 classes a year, for 14 years. Many faculty only teach once every 2 or 3 years, if at all. I've decided I'm not going to teach up there voluntarily any longer. If the department really wants that program to thrive, and wants to maintain high academic standards, I need to see a commitment to that, in terms of actions rather than words. They can't do it off my back anymore. I'm done. If they think I'm too harsh and my grading standards are too high, screw 'em. We just pass everybody anyway, so I need to stop working so damn hard.

It’s past noon. I am waiting in the drive up line for my son’s 9:45 COVID testing appointment.
He has a cold (probably, classic symptoms), so this is an “abundance of caution” test. But still. I am hungry and hot and irritated. __________________ Since you cannot do good to all, you are to pay special attention to those who, by accidents of time, or place, or circumstance, are brought into closer connection with you.

So much sadness in the world. What can you do except hug and pass the tissues?
