Usually, I write about something important to me. But, I really spilled my guts in yesterday’s post, so I feel drained. Given that the Slice of Life Challenge is starting this Thursday and I have signed up to participate again, I thought I would just take today and write about nothing all that important. Another reason I do not have a lot to say is that I have a paper due for my Place Based Learning Instructional Strategy Course on Wednesday. I have not gotten very far on it. I love the subject matter, but seem buried in other obligations – two other grad courses, a conference presentation on March 10th (not started yet), and a trip tomorrow to visit my son at Iowa State University. We are going to see Motown the Musical on stage at Stephens Auditorium, which is a wonderful venue.
I am looking forward to being on a college campus for a few days and spending time with my oldest son who is in his first year of graduate school. I figure that I will work on my presentations and course work in the union. It will be relaxing and hopefully, productive. We will meet for meals and do some fun things together, like the musical. I’ll go and have coffee, take some winter photographs, and buy some Dutch Licorice Drops at STAM Chocolatiers in Downtown Ames. I’ve needed this getaway for a while now and excited the time is near.
Today will be about getting as much work done as possible, so I can freely relax and not worry about what needs to be done. My school obligations will all fall into place whether I worry about them or not. So, here’s my Slice of Life blog about nothing at all.
Have a great time! I just booked a ticket to Minneapolis in March to see Audrey and a show she’s working on. I’m already excited, and it’s a month away!

It seems like your slice is just about your day, even if it is just a “normal” one. It sounds like you have a busy day ahead of you…good luck getting everything accomplished.

Thanks for your comments. Yes, it was a post just about my day. I rarely write those, so I guess that is why I said it was nothing when it was actually something! I had a productive day!

I needed that reminder that everything will fall into place. The next two weeks are going to be super busy, and that reminder at the end of your post was just what I needed to hear! I also look forward to hearing about your trip!
