The Time for Change: 2026 F.I.G. Collective

Sunday, February 15
We went to Dave & Buster's with my BIL, SIL, nephew, and nephew's girlfriend. The food was surprisingly good and there was an oversized Pac-man game I was kind of obsessed with. I'm so grateful we were able to spend time with all of them and have so much fun.

CBBC readers! It's so fun to see everyone's comments about the book.

My friend T was doing a talk at my work today and it was fun to go and listen to her. And then go to her fitness class later that day. It felt like such a treat to get to spend so much time with her!

There was a real mystery at work today. A student had applied for graduation. One degree audit said they had 120.5 credits (enough for graduation) and another degree audit said 118.5 credits (not enough for graduation). I was so grateful to have a colleague who I could sit down with and go over every single class and credit until we figured out the mystery. Also, it was very satisfying when we found the answer!

One of my favorite days of the semester is Career Fair day. I always volunteer to help by checking in students or employers or putting up or taking down all the tables and chairs. I am so thankful that we have this great opportunity for our students to start planning ahead for their future endeavors.

The ice is melted on the river. The river has never iced over completely since I've lived here, but it does get a lot of ice on it. But this morning on our walk with Hannah I noticed that there was no ice. Winter is not over by a long shot, but this is a good sign of things to come. (Also, I'm so grateful that Hannah is feeling well enough to practice platforming on that rock. Yay for her.)
