I totally geeked out this morning, Dearies! Today was my first day of Spinster School, and I started it with a new Bed Coffee set up. I really wish I could adequately tell you how stupidly, ridiculously happy this little tray makes me. I mean...the level of my total excitement over this is positively absolutely just not normal, and you know what?
I'm just too happy to worry about it. 🤗
I started with my Morning Pages, which is just a fancy way I saying I wrote in my journal. Then, I spent a fair amount of time studying my three little subjects...History of Philosophy (*), Shakespeare (The Tempest), and Art History.
(*) I do have the heavy-duty Coppleston from my college days, but I decided to start with a lovely little book by Ralph McInerny. Prof McInerny taught at Notre Dame and authored several academic books, as well as created the Father Dowling mystery series.
I've had my breakfast, took a shower, organized my planner for the week, and have sausage, peppers, and onions ready to go in the oven for dinner.
Whew!
Now it's time to settle in with a nice tall cold brew damn good and do a little stitching:
Not a whole lot of progress last night due to the football game. My Irish, alas, lost to Miami 27-24. (Insert a lot of naughty swear words here.) As I was telling Robin from Virginia, when I was at ND, we had such a huge rivalry with Miami, so this loss really skinned my heiney. 🤬
But it's just a game, I know, and there will be plenty more to come.
Happy Monday/Labor Day! I hope your corner of the world is wonderful! Come tell me all about it!
