Today went super fast. Perhaps, I'm building up my immunity to 7th graders and middle school. I'm less shocked by all things annoying and learning to deal with my uptight impulses. I only received one positive response to my reading group-- I know one other. There's a part of me relieved and a part of me disappointed.
Tutoring my fourth grader lived up to my expectations, which is a near impossible feat. My expectations are as unwieldy and stout as my imagination. But, reading a good book with a kindred spirit is very close to bliss.
I discovered a nifty quotation in the CSL biography: CSL wrote, "However, cheer up, whenever you are fed up with life, start writing: ink is the great cure for all human ills, as I have found out long ago." Writing is a convivial venture. (Is that proper use of "convivial"? It's definitely outside the norm.)
