Work and Rest

I'm traveling this week to do an accreditation visit to another teacher prep program. The days are jam packed with focus groups and interviews and report writing, but the evenings are spent quietly alone in my hotel room. I have gotten so much work accomplished in the evenings! I have also spent time reading, crocheting, and watching HG TV:

And I was way too delighted but housekeeping bundling my otter:

These visits are exhausting on some level, but I also find the evenings some a time of rest. It's a good balance. That said, I will be very glad to be in my own bed tomorrow!
