Endnotes:

We’re having some gorgeous weather here in the Midwest and it’s a bag of mixed blessings. One the one hand, it will be wonderful to enjoy the sunshine at our annual end of the semester department picnic in the park this afternoon. On the other hand, laying in the sun for half the day, seeing everything in bloom, and having the outdoors beckon to me makes it pretty darn difficult to focus on work precisely at the time of the semester when it’s most crucial. 

So today I’m accepting that I’ve lost the battle and instead of fighting the weather, I’m joining it;  I’ve put on my most flowery and summery dress to match the outdoors and the park that is so wonderfully in bloom. S.
