I don't know what's going on in each of your lives these days, but I can certainly say that my life is shifting into extreme high gear at lightning speed . . . or so it seems to be doing lately! At work, it is time for advising students for Spring Semester classes already, in addition to helping the seniors prepare for graduation, and sadly, counseling those students who are failing some of their classes. And that's just on top of regular daily teaching, service, and research activities. Did I mention that I can't even keep up with regular household tasks/responsibilities! I see one of those 'Calgon' bath moments beckoning me!
Where does the time seem to go? With that said, I have not posted once this past week and may not do so for one more week due to the arrival of my parents from Iowa who live with us in the winter (they were scheduled to arrive a few weeks prior to this, but life happens to others as well and their plans were postponed to this week). So I've been on a domestic cleaning spree (what can I say, I always worry about my parents' approval now and then). And this weekend is a series of Halloween parties to attend . . . one must have a social life you know! Gives us foodies a great chance to sample other great recipes or at least get some new ideas!
Welcome to the party and I hope that you meet other great bloggers who inspire you.
- So link-up your post, plus a lovely photo and title of the post.
- As always, I delete any post not related to the theme (which means no posts to try to sell or give away anything, no posts with only coupons or store promotions).
- This is a linky focused on how we are including fresh things in our lives and/or cleaning up our lives in some way, and how we're living in the season. That simple!
- If you like, the buttons for this linky are AT THE BOTTOM of my blog.

Roz I agree and can relate to all you said. It has been feeling like time is just flying by this past year. Whew! How nice your parents come and stay with you all. I would love it if mine could do that as well. I really miss my family in Florida.
