Put the Lime in the Coconut

Here is the newest member of my deck garden: a Thornless Mexican Lime tree--also called Key Lime.

I am very excited about this tree. I like cooking with limes, and I like limes in my iced tea. I prefer limes over lemons any day of the week.

Decisions and Progress

I have just about completed the first week of my summer graduate class at UTSA: 17th Century Drama. I am thoroughly enjoying this class so far. I sincerely hope this enthusiasm persists for the next 4 weeks . . . I think it will. Even though I am grappling with several issues, worries, and decisions in my life right now (not necessarily related to school), I am happy.

I made an A in both classes this past spring. I do not feel I deserve the As, but there they are. I have been working on my attitude, and I am making progress. Digging my way out from the tunnel of my indifference has been hard, but I can see blue skies between the clouds, and I have struggled harder for other things in the past. I can do this . . . I am doing this.
