Where in the World?: Having a life

Yesterday, I entertained my first local visitor. I served tea.
I have to hem a leg of my trousers and replace a button on a shirt.
This Wednesday is wheelie-bin day (trash collection).
Aberdeen has a beach.

Aberdeen's beach

When it is not raining, it is sunny in Scotland in September.
Sunsets make me happy and warm.
I helped students write coherent essays this week, figure out patterns in prime numbers, answer algebraic questions, conjugate French verbs in past tense, and make better decisions about classroom behavior.
Talking with friends on the telephone feels old-fashioned...and like a vitamin C boost.
Nobody gets it like a Fulbrighter (looking forward to seeing the ladies).
I jogged on the treadmill today.
I mopped the kitchen floor on Tuesday.
Tomorrow, I fly to London for a visit to the Embassy and a welcome reception.

I have plans to see a Panto in November and to attend a Burns supper in January.

Rainbows make me misty-eyed.

Students call out to me in the hallways, wave, and smile.

I am counting the days until I can hold my husband.

I got a package in the mail on Wednesday. I had to pick it up at the post office.

I moo when I drive past cows.

I have read two books this month.

I enjoy the quiet.

I get lonely in the evenings.

I love my life.
