I'm Baaaaack!

I am now back in Maryland. Unfortunately, however, both of my winter coats are in Tennessee. 7 and 1/2 hours away. I am kind of looking forward to experimenting with my wardrobe to compensate.

Speaking of warmth, I'm planning on buying a space heater soon, since the house where I live is primarily heated with a wood stove, the heat from which is quite pleasant but does not circulate to my bedroom. Any suggestions on brand or type or size? (You shoudn't even need a Blogger profile to comment, dear non-blogging friends!)

The last few days I have been feeling kind of gloomy about leaving my family and heading back for two more trimesters worth of planning and grading and report cards (but not the teaching - still love the teaching), but as I got ready to leave this morning, I started feeling motivated again. Praise God! It was really quite pleasant to come back to my little room and hang up the gorgeous 2009 calendar that Laura got me for Christmas (see below) and light my little tea candles and unpack my wonderful shoes. It's enough to make up for a cold room and missing coats. (Boy, did that sound dismal. I promise I'm really quite content!)

My mom got a space heater that she absolutely loves. When I talked to her next and get the info, I'll let you know.
