A Big Sigh of... Relief

I was able to breathe a big sigh of relief today. I finally submitted my last paper for the semester just a few minutes ago and I cannot express how much weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I have had a more challenging time this semester than last, even though I only had two classes instead of three. I cannot even estimate how many hours I sat in front of a computer screen and typed or read scholarly journal articles and books. I am so thankful it is over!!! I only have to be thinking and reading up on my thesis topic for most of the summer and I don't have another class until July. I am thrilled.
I am going to spend my time relaxing and reading for pleasure (which I haven't done since I can't remember when). I am also going to be able to spend time with my very neglected husband who has supported me the entire year. Although the summer is not quite here for me yet with my teaching, I am grateful I get to spend my evenings doing what I please and not in class.
