Wow, so I am four weeks into class and so far so good.  I have an essay due in a little under 2 weeks.  That will be a little bit of a challenge.  Philosophy is a whole new kettle of fish for me and so there will be a whole heck of a lot of anxiety when I hand this one in.  I am invested in getting good marks.  It's one of the things I promised myself.  I would work hard and get good marks. So a little finger nail biting and self directed cheerleader sessions of "I can do this!" will be happening. Wish me luck!

Mushrooms

A couple of weeks ago we spent some time at a friend's cottage.  It was lovely and had the hubby and I questioning our life choices.  Should we get a cottage, should we buy a boat, do we really want to drive that far regularly.  Fortunately, sense prevailed.  The concensus, great place to visit, but I wouldn't want to own one.  The experiencewas so good though, that we did have to reexamine this conclusion.

While there we saw these really cool mushrooms and to commemorate the trip I made some stained glass mushrooms as a thank you gift.
