Keeping me off the streets:

The book:  Katherine by Anya Seton – historical fiction classic I should have read long ago, way better than the book I dumped for it (The Inner Circle, ewwww, embarrassing).  Knights, ladies, jousting in medieval England, ahhhh. Escapism is good.

The movie:  Since I know there are no spiders this time – Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, tomorrow!

The food:  Yummy recipe for black beans @ Simply Recipes

The blog:  See Simply Recipes; subscribe to Simply Recipes; have an inbox with a happy full tummy

The job:  Managing 100 or so junior volunteers and preparing a presentation on how I do that without completely losing my mind, to be presented at our state conference.

The nagging question:  Will I ever get used to living in a town where I’m constantly building relationships and then saying goodbye? This must be a bit what it’s like to be a long-term  military family. I don’t know if I’m cut out for this, considering that I don’t even like to interview job candidates because I have trouble maintaining distance during the interview and then it’s hard to reject someone I just bonded with for an hour. Sigh.
