Books are not made for furniture....

"Books are not made for furniture, but there is nothing else that so beautifully furnishes a house."  --Henry Ward Beecher

Well, there might be a limit to how much furniture of books makes a house beautiful.  Almost every day I have books arriving by FedEx from interlibrary loan, or books popping up at the library on a different interlibrary loan, and always more articles popping up to be categorized, read, filed, and/or stored on my Kindle.  I have never in all of my graduate work time had the opportunity to delve so deeply into the literature on a small handful of subjects.  It is wonderful, but...talk about information overload!

I am weary today.  Feeling the strain of the last two weeks.  I think I have been getting a little grumpy also and I need to be mindful of stopping that.  I am now at less than two weeks till turn-in date for the exam.  I am beginning to feel a time crunch.  I am affirming today that I have all the time I need to get this done!  I have all the brain power and perseverance I need. Have a great day everyone.  I am primarily a teacher today and then it is back to the exam desk all day tomorrow.  More later.

Thanks for stopping by,
