My condolences, Maria.
Jayne: There's times I think you don't take me seriously. I think that ought to change. Mal: Do you think it's likely to?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I found a really cool yarn and fabric store today. I'd driven by it before, and today, when I was trying to think of something to do indoors, since it was almost 100 degrees outside, I remembered that store and figured I'd go take a look. Turns out they've got a ton of really neat yarn and fabrics, and the woman who owns it is nice.
Then, on the way home, I took a wrong turn and ended up having to drive over a mountain with lots of twisty turns before finding anywhere that I could turn around. So that was interesting, if a bit nerve-wracking.

The status is NOT quo.
Oh Maria, I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. My thoughts are with you and your family.
Barb, you poor thing. I hope it turns out to be not as bad as they think.

Oh, no, Barb. I hope it all gets cleaned up with a minimum of fuss and bother. And money.
I went to the farmer's market early, where I got a ton of yum: the last of the asparagus, tomatoes, a cuke, snap peas, lettuce.
I'm seeing a salmon salad on the lettuce, tabbouleh with the cuke and tomatoes, and mint from my garden.
And pasta with chicken, mushrooms, tomatoes, snap peas and a few asparagus tips.
Then I wrote for couple of hours, and developed a tremendous headache. I lay down for a bit after taking some aspirin, and fell asleep for two hours.
I am not a napper, but my headache's better.

Hil, that would have put me on edge. I hate taking a wrong turn when driving, never mind on mountain roads.
Hi, Pix! Are you officially on summer vacation?

I am! ...except that I found out this morning I have to go through about 50 resumes, widdle down the pile, have initial phone interviews, and schedule final interviews with the best candidates for the US intern position (because s/he will be teaching one section of 9th or 10th English). So maybe after next week.

I am really frustrated with my continued sadness. Coupled with stress from house stuff and money stuff and organizing a fundraiser and work stuff.
I just miss my Grandma and I just want to run away and hide.
Which is weird, because now I live in the place where I would run to and hide in.

Well, good luck getting that done quickly so that you can relax!

Is an intern like a student teacher or what, pix?

Thanks, sj. I just can't shake this sadness. It's affecting everything I try to do.
It's not LOGICAL. She was 94, I hadn't seen her since September, we were all expecting it. She hadn't been all there for months, I haven't been able to connect with her since last summer. I shouldn't be so morose.
