School is over and I'm happy.

The summer semester at NCC ended this past Thursday, June 27, but I had to finish reading the last set of papers and enter the grades. However, as of four a.m. this morning, I'm free. I don't have to teach until August 20th, and I'v decided to make this week my vacation week. That is, I'm not going to think about the fall semester until Monday, July 8. Lots of time ahead with no strings attached, but I still will stay focused on my goals, especially my writing.
