Meine Mutter

Hello from Kraków and my little apartment, It is about 1:30 a.m. and while I was originally in bed before 9:00, I have awakened and decided to write something if I going to lay here awake. It has been almost 24 hours since I got Nate’s initial text telling me that Lydia’s unbelievably strong battleContinue reading “Meine Mutter”

Understanding Friendship

Good Sunday morning, I was hoping to be in Virginia last night and driving back this morning, but once again, my body seems to have its own plan. I guess a more efficacious consequence was I slept longer and more completely last night than I have for a while. I need to do some cleaningContinue reading “Understanding Friendship”

Respect is Fundamental

Hello from back in Pennsylvania, Yesterday was a long day (it is now Tuesday morning and I am washing bedding for the second time in two days) but those are my Monday’s. While I did get a number of things covered, there yet feels like there is more to do than I seem to haveContinue reading “Respect is Fundamental”

Mi Terquedad

Buenas Días, Es 3:30 y la lavadora y secadora son una vez más en uso. Es probable que lo qui quiero y lo que quiere mi cuerpo están en desacuerdo. Llamé un doctor antes de ayer y era capaz de conseguir una cita el lunes. Parece que otra serie de pruebas sanguíneas están en orden.Continue reading “Mi Terquedad”

Flying

Good early morning, On Friday afternoon, I allowed my Foundations students the opportunity to be outside for class as It was an in-class writing day. It was actually a phenomenal day weather-wise, which typified the week (which is surprising because it was fair week here), but as I made my way around the quad speakingContinue reading “Flying”

Good morning, This title is both intentionally and, for some, frustratingly vague. Yet, if you really know me, it is profoundly clear. In March, on my own volition, I decided to make some dietary changes. Those changes were based on my own self-image and a realization that my advancing age required me to make someContinue reading “Beyond Trying”

Wondering what she really thinks?

Good morning from the study of my house, It is a beautiful morning and I am here in the quietness and the solitude with the sun shining in the windows.

Unexpected – Safe Harbors

Good early morning, I began this last night on my iPad, but it seems that each device has something unique to it and until I put together a post on it and figure out some things, I will invariably erase what I have written. Fortunately last night it was only a paragraph or so. IContinue reading “Unexpected – Safe Harbors”

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 . . .”
