procrastinating...a week goes by...and it is dangerously close to the forties of July

I really do not want to go to my last class...REALLY.do.NOT. But...I am taking a book to another student.  AND I'm still not the girl who skips school...just not. I am looking forward to the evaluation form...the facts are quite enough.  AND done...minus internship...hoping that is much less reading and research and writing.

How is it already this close to the forties of July???  Two grad classes on top of the summer fun and craziness pushed time to near warp speed ~ and my new practice of eucharisteo (thank you Ann Volskamp) means warp speed can be lived with a bit of grace and a lot of effort to avoid amateur status on a daily basis. 

My porch provides a magical space that causes time to equal exactly enough.  Porching is my favorite summertime activity. I have been taking full advantage of the magic ~ writing a little, reading a lot, knitting a little...lots of coffee and a little wine...a random nap...surprise visitors and the occasional stalking squirrel.  I love my porch.  I do not even like the squirrel stalkers. 

Last night was one of my favorite of the summer ~ at Camp Burton for Camp Sue's talent night.  LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!  Awesome music, great joy, immense smiles and people I love <3  My spinning brain is preventing anything more...must go make lists...consume caffeine...porch calling...

fun diversion...

So, I will add Persuasion to my to be read list...Anne is probably the character I am least familiar with when it comes to Jane Austen.
