a happy surprise to start my fall semester. hail state.

After wrapping up my dread first round of math-ing, I’ve had a couple of weeks off between terms before Fall semester starts next week.

I’ve been working on several projects here at home I hope to have finished – I’ll share when we are done 🙂 – before classes, especially some things we’ve been doing in our kitchen and my office.

Also, last week, my daughter, Sara, Henry, and I got to attend our first gathering of the local Mississippi State Alumni group, which was really nifty. ❤

It has been nice to have a little mini-break. ❤

Well, yesterday, I got an email from my advisor letting me know that I was also given a small scholarship from the first honor society I was inducted into last year, Omega Nu Lambda.

I’ve found that many things just mean more to me now getting to be a Bulldog as an adult student – and that is certainly true of this. I am so grateful for every opportunity and blessing that has come my way.

This was particularly unexpected – so I am extra happy to have been selected. ❤

Now I’m looking forward to our first Saints pre-Season game of the year tonight with my better half AND putting out my pumpkins tomorrow – I can wait no longer 😉 – after I finish some more home projects.
