New Year

Mark and I welcomed the new year quietly--we stayed home and watched TV shows on DVD till midnight, then went to bed, but we did try to celebrate a little (mostly by having junk food for dinner :-). Since we got back to Tucson, we've spent a lot of time working around the house. It took me a couple of days to get the laundry under control (a suitcase full of dirty clothes, plus lots of new ones); and we've been unpacking and organizing DVDs and books a little each day. Yesterday, we finally got the living room more or less under control, but there's still lots to be done in Mark's room.

We did have a nice time in ABQ for Christmas--I certainly needed the family time (I think we all did). I took some pictures (especially on the day that it snowed), which I hope to post soon. Since I think most of the people who read this were with me over Christmas, I won't share any more details.

I am starting to feel like it's time for me to start preparing for the semester to begin. Not only do I need to get my syllabus ready (it's due on the 11th), but I think I need to somehow mentally prepare for the challenge of school again. Thankfully, this semester should be much easier for me. Mark, on the other hand, will be busy with auditions and a recital, but I know he'll make it all work.

It seems like I don't really have all that much to say at the moment, but I thought I should post something since it has been a while.
