Good evening, good morning, good next day, I am sitting in my study after a day of working on cars and bikes and doing some cleaning, a day of planting and working in the yard, and a day of washing clothes, some planned and some unplanned. While I was up pretty early, that is theContinue reading “41 Years and a Walking Oxymoron”

One More Time
Good early morning, I have gone to bed for the day, but my brain seems to be in overdrive. It is early morning now . Part of that is due to life’s circumstance, part of it is because of the night’s conversation, and, yet again, part of it is because of my reflecting on theContinue reading “One More Time”
Creating Memories
Good morning on a cloudy and humid day, This morning began early 4:23 a.m. to be exact. It seems an aspirin taken to manage a fever last evening decided to raise havoc with my stomach. So after a bit of puttering around the house this morning, including a load or two of laundry, I wentContinue reading “Creating Memories”
Beset by Irony
Good evening, As I write this there is a group of students working on their Odyssey of the Mind project in the next room. I have watched the movie, The Last Samurai, for the umpteenth time, but it is a movie that inspires me. It inspires me to work to be a better person and to beContinue reading “Beset by Irony”
Laughing at Mistakes
Good Monday evening, I am in my study after a rather random weekend. As I noted in the last post, I did attend the Art Garfunkel concert Saturday night. While I went by myself, I did find out that another person I knew was headed to the concert also and she and her friend actuallyContinue reading “Laughing at Mistakes”

Carente de Sentido Común
Good Morning, It has been a long few days since I last posted. Late last week I made a quick (and somewhat brutal) trip to Wisconsin and back. I made it 2000+ miles in about 66 hours (and 36 hours of not really driving). The trip there was not that bad, but the last twoContinue reading “Carente de Sentido Común”
Another Semester ~ Another Year
Good evening from the corner of my study in Bakeless, It has been one of the more eventful weeks I think I have had in a while. A week ago I was headed to Hazleton, where I ended up spending the night with my adopted family. I had the opportunity to share some important informationContinue reading “Another Semester ~ Another Year”
Please, just let it end!
Good evening, As I begin this posting, my capstone level students are filling out their course evaluations. This is the next to last class. Next week they will do their presentations with their clients in attendance. I am always excited by this part of the semester to see what they have actually produced. Most timesContinue reading “Please, just let it end!”
And the next thing is . . .
Good Morning from the corner of my office, It was another eventful and jam-packed day yesterday, but all-in-all, pretty productive. I am really somewhat amazed that I was still plugging along at 8:00 p.m. last night because I did not get to bed the previous night. I have been revising and organizing the tenure stuff.Continue reading “And the next thing is . . .”
