It’s Been A While…

My, I abandoned this. Poor blog, I have neglected you.
It’s been since December, and since then, well, I have gotten married, becoming a stepmom in the process, started teaching college classes, and basically puttered about with my life, surviving winter, and trying to come to terms with all the changes in my life.
Good changes, but still, big changes, things that make one lean back from the world, retreat a while, and say “Hmm, gotta think about this.”
I’m excited for the summer — my stepson comes for his summer vaca in a couple of weeks, and I’m at once a little nervous about that — my sleep schedule is way wacky — and excited, because he’s a great kid, and we will have a lot of fun.
I have my summer classes start on 6/14, and I am looking forward to doing a better job with the course this time around; the first time you teach a course, it’s always full of kinks and bugs, so I am anticipating being able to work on some of those things, and hopefully, make it a better class this time around.
There are lots of fun social things to look forward to this summer, including a girly trip my friend’s lovely house this June, a family outing to the same friend’s house with MY family (Holy carp, I have a FAMILY!), and lots of other cool things, including planning my wedding reception in September, hanging out with my friends and their kiddos, and working on the house/yard. I’m set for summer classes, but I am going to try to find a gig teaching at a more traditional university — maybe, if I’m really lucky, scoring a LIT gig.
Yo, I am a suburban housewife/stepmom/adjunct professor. And I kinda dig it.
