Let’s see, it’s already January 19 and I’m just now getting around to mapping out my year. But in my defense, it’s only because I had to finish up a three-credit-hour course in Science methods which I did in two weeks. Talk about noodle brain!

Time — it’s not what you think!
Today I’m blogging on my teaching portfolio website. Please check it out and let me know what you think! I have some happy news to share there. Yes, I have a life outside of writing. Believe it or not. I’d like to think it makes me a better writer. Mostly, though, I think it makes me tired. That one time …
To my dear readers
Dearest Most Darling Reader, My website hosting is weird. Half the time it doesn’t let me in to blog. In its eagerness to protect me from hackers it even blocks ME! And the server people don’t work on weekends (when I have more time to blog) so by the time I’m allowed back in to work, my inspiration has flown …
