What I’ve been doing

I’m busy grading final essays for the semester, doing lots of landscaping work on my yard, and getting ready to write a short story, but when I return there will be lots of photos of kittens, a beautiful garden-like yard, treats sent to me recently from Japan, Japanese food I’ve been making, and a bunch of other cool things. For now, I’m off to complete more tasks, though. Spring has sprung in full, and it is lovely to be outside in it.
