Despite bags/computers full of grading; admin; intractable questions relating to the latter; books we'd like to read but may not have time to get round to; books that may or may not find their way onto next semester's syllabi, and various other things (amaryllis lily bulbs that are well towards flowering; a bag of interestingly lumpy Christmas presents from my father; warm coats), we and the cats are very much looking forward to the quiet of New Mexico. We're overnighting, as ever, at La Posada, in Winslow, which is full of its usual Christmas lights and decorations ... if I sound formulaic, it's because last year this winter trip didn't happen, because of Alice's radiation (she had just one day off for Christmas), so I'm thankful beyond all measure that we're making the trip this time!
