I'm doing the best I can
Those words are usually used in a less than positive context, but right now I'm feeling quite calm and confident.
There are a few things I'm waiting on: Passport, a signature from the Interim Grad School Dean, a fax from the Westin; but I've done all I can on all fronts and now I must sit back, wait, and be content that things will happen.
I've reached a fairly zen state about the passport issue. It will either arrive or it won't. If it does, hurray! If not, I have a week to get the house in order. I'm going to take some vacation days regardless. It's just a matter of if I take them in Italy or not.
When I got home Saturday night, I made up my final wardrobe item for Italy: A pair of batiste-lined linen pants. They're fabulously comfortable, and will be ever-so-much cooler than my black stretch twill capris.
Speaking of wardrobe: the dress I made for the post-Campbell Conference awards room party? Big hit. I'll post a pic soon.
