Yay for Ted Ligety, making up for Bode Miller's continued overexpectation, and overhype. Ted Ligety won Gold for the USA in the Alpine Combined event today. That was USA's only new medal.

On another note, I have to critique poems for my Creative writing course. I am dreading this. It is hard enough to reread my own work and figure out how it would work better. What if I am horribly off base as to what would improve their work? Plus, there is that gradeschool feeling I will admit to. The feeling of "the won't like me anymore if I am not always nice". Silly, I know. So, I keep putting off the work. Which isn't good. My time will be limited until class on Thursday. And more than anything, the people do deserve me to do my best. So, I think I will ...go suffer through a bit of it.

Valentine's Day was nice. Went to lunch with my husband. Helped out at the kid's school during the Valentine's parties. My mom stopped by to share Valentines with the kids. All in all a happy day .

Hmm...I've been all over the place in this post. I haven't been writing all week. We start creative non-fiction work next week. That might end up being a bit long to post here. I am finding I like being able to revisit my thoughts about my work at the time I posted it. It is helping me return to what my purpose was with some of the poems.
