currently

I am...

Reading: just starting Two Girls Down

Listening to: the laptop cooling pad fan is loud, it might be dying

Loving: waking up without an alarm--sleeping in, not hurrying or rushing

Thinking: making a list of projects I would like to complete over this school break

Feeling: optimistic

Celebrating: Potato Harvest Break--which is a two-week break from school. Back in the day, there were so many family farms that relied on manual labor (their own children and other kids) that the family would pull the kids from school to help with the harvest. I am not so sure why we continue having Harvest Break as most kids do not do the manual harvest jobs which have become mechanized and you need to be at least 18 to operate the machines. It was a rite of passage when I was a kid. Now, not so much. But it's a tradition.

Grateful for: nothing urgent needing to be done

Weather: currently 74 degrees and mostly cloudy

Enjoying: Dunkin' iced coffee

A quote I want to share:

Spooky. As of last night my new banner is three girls gathering potatoes. And just recently celebrated Tsukimi. Harvest Moon Viewing.
