I thought I’d share a few photos of the University Campus – very near my office window. This is where I taught for 8 years and where I have returned to teach this semester. The University of San Diego is situated on a hill overlooking the Pacific Ocean and Mission Bay. Its very pretty and the buildings are all designed in the same style. No ivy covered walls here. I used to live down the street from Harvard and I think I prefer that look – but it is very beautiful here and nicely landscaped. The above photo is the view I have as I walk toward my office. The building at the very back is the Studio Theater and it also functions as a classroom space.
Things I like on a Sunday morning
Sitting on the sofa with a cup of French Roast ~ reading a wonderful novel. Hearing the birds singing away outside and realizing that their ever-present song will be coming back to my home in New York very soon. Watching the cloudy morning skies give over to glorious sunshine.
Gazing at the beautiful roses I bought at Trader Joes the other day. They are tiny, in different shades of pink and cream that delicately color the buds ~ they look like candy.
My Trader Joes tote ~ aren’t the colors wonderful? So cheerful ~ the graphics are splendid.
My “Knitting Muse” ~ my sister has one like this and I admired it on my last trip to Florida. When Don was here, we explored a little shop here called Grove that has all my favorite things: books, fabric, yarn, paintings, clothing, jewelry. I remarked that if I was going to open a shop, Grove would be exactly what I’d go for. I bought some earrings, some Amy Butler fabric, and at the register I saw this! Meant to be. Now if I could just get knitting again, all would be perfect.
I hope your Sunday is a good one. I have some work to do at the computer for school. I also am attending a matinee of a musical, Working, currently playing at the Globe. I did a little dialect work with two of the actors and both of my current downstairs neighbors are in it.
More later.
Pink Saturday
Ah, time for another Pink Saturday. Beverly of How Sweet the Sound generously hosts this event. Please click on the link to see more Pink Saturday posts! How about a little blue with your pink today?
I found this little German plate at Vignette’s today. I love the blue and pink colors in this sweet piece of china. The flowers are more pink than this photo indicates.
Some of you have seen this print before, but I bought it to brighten up my apartment while living here in San Diego. I love the blue background and the beautiful pink flowers.
Happy Pink Saturday to all!
