Getting back to work

It's been a few weeks of handling various non-academic crises - the ice storm knocked out our power, the doggie got very sick (bless her wee paws), and it just got very chaotic with three dogs of various temperaments in the house. It's kind of relaxing to just sort out what the next few months are going to look like, all in various colours on the wall.
