Hello from my office, I have finished grading for the semester and turned in those grades, I have managed a couple of items that need to be managed to get ready for the summer and I actually have a bit of time where I could relax (whatever that means) and perhaps merely take some downtime.Continue reading “When does one relax?”

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 . . .”
Sprinting towards what . . . ?
Good evening from the corner of my study, It has been a busy few days, which certainly seems to be the norm rather than an exception. I remember saying that last semester was busier than any I had ever participated in. At that point, I could not fathom that this semester could, in any wayContinue reading “Sprinting towards what . . . ?”
58 or 5
Good evening from the study of my house, We are looking at another night in the 20s and I am certainly ready for spring rather than what we are doing. It makes me feel like I am back in the Upper Peninsula. I have had hanging baskets on my porch for the last two yearsContinue reading “58 or 5”
Managing Tenure
Good Morning from my office, It is early or late, depending on your perspective. I did get a nap a bit earlier and have been back at the office for about the last 5 hours. I am making progress and, at least for the moment, seem to be pretty lucid and focused. I did decideContinue reading “Managing Tenure”
The Art of Relaxation
Hello from the Sacramento Airport, I have made it across the entire country, and, by the end of the day, back. It has been a bit stressful, but Lydia has amazed me (and others) yet again. I remember last summer, in the span of four days, she had a stroke, a significant seizure, congestive heartContinue reading “The Art of Relaxation”
Managing a Partial Body
Hello from an airport, Actually it had been awhile since I have flown (October or early November), but the weekend will be a whirlwind. I will have covered the entire continent with a stop in the middle once again in about 54 hours. In the midst of that, I still need to finish up myContinue reading “Managing a Partial Body”
