Sunday, January 31st, 2010I’m guilty. Yes, I have talked on my cell while driving. Yes, I thought I had it under control. And while I didn’t text while driving (now THAT one I don’t quite understand), I would, periodically, start a text at a stop light, stop when I began moving, and try to continue the [...]
DO YOU HAVE AN AGING PARENT? DON’T GET CAUGHT OFF GUARD!!!
Saturday, January 31st, 2009My parents had me when they were in their late 30s. As I grew older, I was always proud to talk about my parents’ age, because they aged so well. My mom always looked at least 10-15 years younger than she was, and she acted youthfully as well. She was so active, so vibrant – [...]
“Growing Up Online”
Tuesday, January 22nd, 2008As many of you know, I teach high school – grades 9 and 12. As they often share with me different aspects of their lives, I am increasingly flabbergasted at the amount of time children spend online. I am actually floored that their way of making friends and interacting with those friends is [...]
Giving Ourselves Enough Credit
Saturday, January 12th, 2008We live in a fast-paced society. We want things quickly. We want them now. We want to arrive at our destinations quickly. We want to lose weight quickly. I personally want those 15 pounds off RIGHT NOW!

It’s Not the Devil People!
Saturday, May 12th, 2007I know the topic I’m about to broach is sensitive. For Christians, at least. And for others, it may be mildly amusing. Yet, it’s something that has bothered me for a few years now, and it really just sort of came to a head this evening (I started this post Thursday evening, [...]

A Bit Exhausted
Tuesday, March 27th, 2007Yes, I am.
I’ve been thinking about a lot of things…
Creativity…
Fathers…
Daughters…
Teaching…
Writing…
I’ve had a lot to do. I’ve got papers to grade. Presentation to prepare for a meeting on Thursday afternoon. Lectures and discussions to develop…this week.
I’ve also got to spend more time with my husband.
Theodore Roethke once said,
“A mind too active is no [...]

Simply Successful Secrets
Tuesday, March 20th, 2007The best thing I love about blogging is the potential for learning from the wisdom and insight of other people. I can imagine how long it would’ve taken to “meet” the wonderful people I’ve met since I began back in November. And through this fabulous community, I’ve grown a little, if not more. [...]
