Savoring With All My Might

Sarah and I have a running joke when it comes to enjoying our weekends. As an adult with a grown up job I have come to appreciate my weekends. So every weekend we ask each other, "Are you savoring?" This long weekend has been full of savoring. I spent the better part of Saturday watching the opening weekend of college football. Once USC had their game in hand I was in full savoring mode. Sunday I finally got around to uploading the pictures from my Europe trip and other events. They are all now in a digital photo album. The only thing missing is the set of photos from London. Once I find those I will upload them. On Sunday I also got all my grading done. I had some writing assignments to grade and reading question packets. Now that these are all done I will be able to print out progress reports. I can only imagine the kids are amped about that development. Today I have spent the day planning the next two weeks. Granted, I don't have the materials done, but at least I know what I want to do.
In about 30 minutes Sarah should be home. She went with the volleyball team to a tournament in Wyoming. This was her lone free weekend for awhile and going with the team was optional. I am glad she went though because it seems like her job requires so much and takes so much that at the least she should get a free trip every now and then out of it. Sure she had to work while she was there, but she also got to see parts of the Rocky Mountains after the tournament. She called and said it was gorgeous. I would hope that being able to go there made the trip worth it. When she gets home we may go do something together before the long weekend ends.
There is only a little more weekend left. I need to get my last bit of savoring in while I can.
