You sneaky little spring break…

March 24, 2012

I’ve been a bit MIA this week. I thought spring break would give me more time to blog… lies. I also thought it would give me time to grade student papers, start working on my end-of-the-semester projects, get some projects done around the house… lies. All lies.

Remember those San Diego pics I promised to edit and post? Well, I’ve finished about five of them… here’s one.

To my classmates who were posting things on Facebook and Twitter all week like… “Just wrote for eight hours straight” and “Finally feeling caught up…”

I am trying not to hate you…

But the good news is….

  • I got to see this girl on Thursday, and I love her more than ever! 
  • I finally found a Mexican restaurant in Phoenix that I like!!! It’s only taken almost two years.
  • We are having a bunch of friends over for a backyard BBQ tomorrow!
  • And my house is clean…

See you Monday friends!

P.S. Jenni, you won the giveaway! I’m emailing you!

    Oh my goodness, I completely agree about Spring Break flying by! I didn't get ANYTHING done that I wanted to. Being real sick since I got home from vacation hasn't helped either. Aye yai yai. I could use another week of break. Haha.

Hi. I’m Jen Russum and this blog is where I’ve been sharing narratives of God’s grace for more than a decade now. Some might say “blogs are dead” but I’m waiting for them to come back around like mom jeans and 90s flannel. I enjoy my coffee iced, my summers hot, and my dinner parties long with lots of laughter. I process all of life’s deepest, darkest, and happiest moments by writing essays in my head. When I have the time, some of these essays get typed up and shared here. I’ve always loved to write, and I hope my words bring you joy and encouragement.
