Back at the Coffee Shop
Ate and ate and ate yesterday. Ate again this morning. Mom made potato pancakes with some of the remaining mashed potatoes. They were very good. Especially with salsa.
I am thinking very seriously about skipping lunch because I'm pretty sure I've ingested enough in the last two days to keep me for a while. And yet, I see people wandering past with ice cream in waffle cones (that they're getting from the coffee shop in which I'm sitting) and it's becoming more and more difficult to not pop up and toddle across the room to get one. Asthma and weight loss be damned. I want an ice cream cone. Though I could probably be pacified with a couple of spoonsful.
Everyone here is doing well. My nephew is cutting several teeth (a few of them molars, yikes!), so he's a bit cranky. But so sweet. He's walking a lot now. It looks a bit like your classic movie monster shuffle, and occasionally when he gets excited he can't quite make everything work together and falls over. He still has the loveliest smile and the best laugh in the world, though. Hopefully I'll have some footage of him walking that I can put up here soon.
Anyway, I came here to work, so I should probably do some of that. Only two assignments left to grade and then I'll be all caught up again. Until my students turn things in on Monday. But it would be awfully nice to go into the last three weeks of the semester fully caught up.
