Midterms

It is hard to believe the fall semester is half over and I am already thinking about registering for next semester!!. I did find out that two of my classes will actuallly have to be seated classes, so I might get to see some people that I have only met by computer so far. I am looking forward to it. Midterm grades are in and I am happy! I have had a few bumps in the road and a minor meltdown or two, but I have to say it has been worth it. I just keep focusing on my final goal and try to take things one day at a time. I am looking forward to a time when I can start getting more sleep though. Maybe next summer when I wont have so many classes to take. Though I do plan to garden again next summer and that is best done early in the morning. I finally pulled up the last of my plants today after harvesting the last of my veggies in anticipation of the freeze this week. I did end up with a 5 gallon bucket full of tomatoes and peppers. I didnt realize I had that much still on the plants. I am going to try fewer plants next time in hopes of better yield. I did get a bit carried away in the spirit of buying starters this spring. I am also thinking about growing some different things next time, maybe some broccoli and carrots and onions. I might try potatoes again, if the mice dont get to them.
I am sitting here listening to the wind pick up, so I think it will be storming soon. I do love a good thunderstorm! As long as it doesnt rain on Friday, because I hate going to football games in the rain. We won our game last Friday against Mt. Grove, just 2 more to go for the regular season, then on to post season play. We are going to be the featured game of the week on KY3 this Friday, so watch the news if you can. I found a cool new series on TV to watch, called The Walking Dead, on Sunday nights on AMC. It is about life after the zombies take over. Not too scary, but more in the spirit of the Night of the Living Dead movies, if you are old enough to remember those. I am still trying to finish the Fire of Heaven trilogy, though I havent had too much time to read lately, I did take about an hour on Sunday to just relax and read. Well, time to go before the power does, the lights are flickering a bit.
