One of the things I love about being in Abilene is getting to see all the friends and family who come in for ACU Homecoming! I have been looking forward to this for a while, and now that it's here I'm so tired! But I'm sure once I get around my college friends and my sister, brother-in-law, and little niece I will have a lot more energy!
I'm just finishing things up at school so that I don't have to take it with me this weekend. Actually this year I've gotten a lot better at staying at school to finish work, and then going home taking only my purse. Last year I had the guilt of taking papers home, not grading them, carrying them to school, then home again. Some papers got a lot of mileage riding back and forth in my car. This year, it stays at school, out of sight, out of mind until the next day.
Brandon's in Hot Springs, Arkansas on a golfing trip with a bunch of his baseball friends from ACU and most of the males in the Stites family. I know he's having a great time hanging out with his friends, ragging on each other, and playing 36 holes of golf a day. Before he left, he got some pants from Goodwill and had me cut them and sew elastic in the bottom to make knickers. Hope he gets some pictures of that!
Those of you who are driving in for the weekend, have a safe trip! I look forward to seeing you!
