OKay, a Sunday post...after a very frustrating morning on the computer. Dropping of internet connections in the middle of writing an e-mail, I ended up writing half a dozen times until it finally all came together...anyway...
I have been hunkered down in Lancaster, PA for the past four or five days. Once again Judy Watson has been kind to me and Ozzy to crash on her sofa. Ozzy is being spoiled by this whole experience, but we will be hitting the road Monday morning, beginning our trek back to NH to teach over January term. I have three students registered and that makes it worth my while to return and teach. I know two of the students and am looking forward to it. So, I should be in NH in a week or so...I would like to be there for finals week so I can see some students before I head out again after January.
A good friend of many of us with connections in Lancaster, PA passed away December 1. We had a funeral for him on Friday which was the way funerals should be. Just a lot of food, drink, good company and music. Joel Haimes was a particularly gracious and warm hearted man who lived a good life, instilling kindness and joy in friends, community and family. He will certainly be missed, but, as long as we celebrate life, he will be remembered.
The weather is not looking particularly good and really has not been good for a while. I anticipate some difficult traveling conditions in the upcoming week, but, all systems seem to be operating at excellent levels and I'm sure I will be warm, dry, safe and sound. Not sure where I will be staying in NH, but, as it has been, I will put my trust in the universe and look forward to all that I need coming together.
And, finally, I want to thank all of you who are reading my blog posts. I have been posting for about three months, I think 31 posts in all, and have had over 2100 page views!! That's about 700 a month. Pretty good and I hope you continue to enjoy.
