Well, so much for blogging everyday

I enthusiastically started the new year with the goal of writing everyday. To my credit, I try to blog often but somedays feel a need for privacy so I slip into journalling.

A shout out to my son Chris. On one of our Sunday talks on the phone he said he checked my blog regularly and encouraged me to keep it up. A loving hug from LA to Southgate, MI to you Chris. Thoughts of you as a small boy give my great joy. See you in April:)

Planning to apply for a sabbatical. One the wonderful aspects of being a tenured professor is to be able to take a semester off for a project. If accepted, I’ll be off for the Spring 2020 semester. The project will probably be writing about the emotional rollercoaster ride serving students with disabilities at the community college level. The proposal has to show that the project you plan to accomplish takes up about as much time one would have worked during a typical semester.

Tomorrow evening is the fourth monthly meeting of our UU Church project called, “A Year to Live” that I attend. Think about that…what would you do if you were told you had only a year to live?

Talk about lifestyle changes! Or would you, could you go on pretty much doing what you’re presently doing?

What would you do?

I’ll try writing a bit about my thoughts, feel free to share yours.
