That's a rhetorical question. I know where the time goes. It goes flying by while I'm sleeping and working and talking to my kids. This week sure hasn't started the way I wanted it to. I can't even remember for sure what day it is. I woke up sick Thursday morning, and haven't been out of bed since. And yes, that is 'Thursday' as in 'Thanksgiving'. (frustrated sigh) Like it isn't bad enough to get a stomach bug out of nowhere, to wake up with it on Thanksgiving morning? That is just totally unfair. I didn't get to eat anything! Not that Thanksgiving is really all about the food, and I was thankful for plenty of things that day...but eating wasn't one of them.
It's okay though. I'm just having Thanksgiving part II next week. I'll cook a turkey and some dressing and a scaled down Thanksgiving dinner and have the kids over, and it will be lovely.
Between now and then, however, I have a lot of writing to do. I need to finish my draft so I can edit and get my final project done. I have peer reviews this week, which are not my favorite thing, (not even on the top ten list, to tell the truth) but like it or not, I do believe it is a useful task. I need an objective eye or two on my paper.
So I need to read a couple of other papers and review them (that's the part I don't like) and I need to finish my paper and I need to do the same thing in my other class, and I need to throw off the remnants of this stomach bug that is still pestering me and then I can have turkey with my kids.
Notice how I am not even talking about Christmas shopping? That is NOT an oversight.
