This is my friend, Igor. We have been in grad school together for three years now. People think we plan these things, but we often show up for class wearing the same "theme". Today it was pink and jeans.

Me and my girls. Jes came over with her wet hair pulled back in a pony tail, so I offered to give her a hairdo. It came out quite curly, but we had fun. Drats, I told Aza that I'd put hers in curlers too, but forgot and now she's gone back to school. I miss them both all the time when they're at school. We had a low-key Easter with simple food and lots of laughter. Dan thinks we're from outer space, what with the kooky things we talk about. I sent Jes back to school with some old cookware from the basement, and Aza back to school with a long hug to last her four more weeks.

Can you believe this? I woke up this morning to SNOW in April in Virginia. Amazing. It was beautiful, but didn't last long. What a special treat.

My orchid finally bloomed! It had been dormant since September of 2005, and now it is making me smile. It was a gift from Thessa at my very first art show... Maybe it's speaking to me.

This is one of the many colored azaleas in my mother's back yard. Her garden is just blooming with color. I love Auburn in April!

My office in Auburn for a few days, on the breakfast room table I studied at all through college.

The Jeffersonia diphylla has bloomed in my front garden, a gift from a student long ago, perennially blooming each spring.

Today is the first full day of spring! Here are the little flowers blooming on our Japanese Maple Tree, and here's Frisbee looking out the window at Dan spreading mulch in the gardens. Welcome spring!

I spent today working in my office at school. This is my office, and these are my friends Igor, Banshee, and Lala, who are in the doctoral program with me. I set the camera on a shelf to take this picture.

OK, my office is a big mess. I'm drowning in papers and books. This one special booklet is 50 years old, commissioned by President Eisenhower. I got it through interlibrary loan.

This is not hot chocolate. I wish! It's hot carob, a safe substitute for chocolate. It wasn't bad... it wasn't that great either, but for a cold wet dreary day, it tasted yummy in my tummy.

Today it actually slushed. It rained ice a bit. Here's the view out my office window. See the bird house? Dreary day.

This has to be one of the coolest pictures I've taken this year. The sun was setting, coming in the windows at the perfect angle, and Dan was taking a drink. I captured this shadow on the secretary my mom gave us.

Dan got me tulips today. They're my favorite flower. Today we hiked some more around the trail circuit, then took an afternoon nap, then went shopping for dinner, then JES came home from Florida, then we ate shrimp etouffee and fried eggplant with blueberry muffins, whipped cream, and strawberries for dessert. It was a perfect day, and I'm so happy to have all my children home tonight.

Now, THIS is what the Gaffney peach is supposed to look like! We had great weather driving past it going north.
