Hello again!

Hello, S2K friends!
You've been in my thoughts even though I haven't been around very frequently the past few months.
Since the beginning of the year I have been regularly working at least 10-hour days with quick-bite or no lunch at my desk. I'm also currently teaching M-W evenings, which means I go straight to my classroom from my office at 6 and get home around 9:30 those days. I put in regular work hours at home nightly and weekends, as well -- at this point my home is way past needing Merry Maids and more in the range of desperately in need of a platoon of industrial-strength factory cleaners.... Strangely enough, though, I love what I do, and I've only come close to one semi-meltdown when 2 federal reports and 1 state report were all due within the same week.
As far as what's new, we took a round-trip Alaskan cruise from Vancouver to Juneau June 9-16. I couldn't get enough of that fresh, clean, crisp air! We visited Sitka, Skagway, and Juneau. Having lived in the Midwest for 50 years and now coastal SoFla for 7, I was thrilled with the mountain vistas. If you'd like to see some pix, please visit <http://tinyurl.com/yuqev4>. Sorry, I can't seem to make that url into a hyperlink on my iBook, so you'll have to cut and paste.
I'll try harder to save time for relaxing with you all at S2K this summer!
Warmly,
Dee Bee
