I couldn't meet the deadline to propose my dissertation proposal last month. Will do it again in April.

I have had squirrels jumping around right in front of my office window for two weeks. One of them has built a little nest right beside my window. I have folders and christmas cards sitting at the bottom of my window. So, the squirrel has some privacy but I can still see him/her sleeping through the gaps of my folders and cards.

My students and I are hoping this is a female squirrel. Then we may be able to see baby squirrels some time. :)

It's amazing to see the squirrels "glow" at sunset. They are up in the trees and the coats shine. :)
