It's Done and It's Happening

The research paper is done - checking sources, proofreading and concluding paragraphs!!!!!

The cookies are baking - Christmas cookies (just like I need a cup of butter and a cup of sugar). My comment to my 16 year old - I should just go get some 15 pound weights and attach them to my butt somewhere!!!!!

I think I'm going to try and participate in a marathon...I am slow - in fact, I don't even run...will start slowly and see what happens. I just hope that the other part of life doesn't get in the way.

The Geography Club has been accepted as a registered student organization at my school. I am the chairperson of the Bicycle Project Committee - we want to send reconditioned bikes to a developing country to be used by and for women...working on the details of where, how, what kinds of bikes...so much fun.

Received the paperwork today to start applying to incorporate a non-profit group - I am thinking I want to call it Mango Tree, in honor of our first project. At this point, I'm not even saying in honor of what we hope will be our first project...this will be our first project!!! I'm so excited about the possibilities.

Tonight is our ONE event - the movie in the cafe - a move screening on the "Girl in the Cafe."

Next week is the last week of school and finals begin on Thursday - no time to spare in the middle of finishing classes and starting finals!!!!!!! I have three take home papers due, 97 Spanish sentences to memorize, a rough draft due in two days...and, oh yeah, finals!!!

Life is a grand experience. I just don't want to miss a beat!
