Monday I got donuts for Joya's panel discussion about Opportunities at PITT.  Students showed us that they had applied for absentee ballots or library cards.  This week I reminded my students to send me an email if they have allergies to common substances, and about their flu shots.  I went to a talk on Race and Health by Prof. Johnson of the University of Michigan at the Cathedral of Learning.  Sat in the same row as Darve, my former UTA, now a medical student.

Wednesday there was no Bible study and Carol W from CIDDE observed me at work that afternoon.
~~~
Thursday our first gradesheets were due in the morning, I met up with Carol W of CIDDE regarding my observation, and I got my flu shot.

Graded MORE this weekend (finished grading the prelabs before the weekend, but did not finish grading all four sections--graded 3/4 sections of the notebooks).  Went with Mom and Dad to "Auntie Azon's Mass at the Cathedral....We all went to dinner at Dumpling House.  I sat at the kid's table with Regina and John.  Tita Trinita misses Auntie Azon very much.  We got back in time to welcome k & K to Pittsburgh.  I put a whole chicken and some pork in my freezer.  We enjoyed spring water, kefir water, and I got a shoulder massage.  Much food was eaten and enjoyed.  I graded all day Saturday and Sunday.

Tuesday, after work I went to the Library Meet and Greet (Wine and Cheese) and chatted with Carlos P, Margarete, and Marni H.  Margarete and I walked to the Biology complex together.

Wednesday (today) I caught up with my blogging journal, and will go to Bible Study this morning.
