Another semester: Saturday mornings

Our second semester in Bloomington has begun, and it's back to the academic grindstone for Jim. He's taking a heavy load of 4 classes (3 is considered full-time). One of the joys of student life is of course the weekend, and Saturday mornings for us mean Jim gets up early to start studies while Jul sleeps in, then we have breakfast together and face a long morning of reading (Jim: articles etc for class; Jul: NY Times and USA Today) and drinking coffee/tea.

Last week in fact we celebrated 6 months in B-town - with waffles! (I couldn't resist posting another photo of Jim in an apron. That's for you, Heather.) Mom G, the wafflemaker worked great!!! It's going to transform our Saturday mornings.


This is the life, right, Jim? Often his reading assignments are PDF articles that he downloads and reads on the computer.


and here's Jul (well, not really) sipping tea and reading the papers. Ah, what basketball/tennis/football games are on this weekend and how can I watch them without distracting Jim?

"Jul - not really"

Sounds like the title for a still life painting.

Meanwhile, how about a diversion from NYT with a P.O.E.M?
