Hello from the house, Sometimes, it seems just as I think I begin to figure things out, I realize how little it is I seem to know; and more profoundly, or even more frighteningly so, the miniscule number of items or circumstances I can actually control. This past week has reminded me once again ofContinue reading “The More I Learn . . .”

We all need Vacations . . .
Hello everyone (well not quite), As a break from grading and packet reviewing, I am going to write a blog that will be posted in two different blog sites, but both sites are important.

SGS – Short Once Again
Hello from the GI/Nutrional Center at Geisinger, I am currently waiting for a recopying of paperwork that I managed to misplace before I even got out of the hospital today.

Show me the Way
Hello from my upstairs, It has been a day of reflection and a day of feeling I am too far away from where I believe I should be.

Planning for an Uncertain Future
Hello on another Sunday morning from the Fog and Flame, Technically, it is a few minutes after noon, but I have been here for a couple of hours working on things to prepare for the coming week and my classes; it seems to be my weekly pattern (including listening to Pandora – I know someContinue reading “Planning for an Uncertain Future”
Where has 40 years gone?
Hello from Fog and Flame, While many feel there is a let down after the holidays, and there is some truth to that reality. However, the first part of February is, for me, a time of memories and events which have shaped my life in more ways than I am readily aware. The subconscious consequence ofContinue reading “Where has 40 years gone?”
Reflections on Learning in our 24/7 Classroom
Hello late in the evening from Kraków, As we finished the last day of actual classes today, students scattered to the winds to have dinner and manage their last evening before their convocation at Jagiellonian University’s hallowed halls tomorrow.
