      It's hard to express what this SOL community has meant in just support for writing but it was wonderful to have comments for my emotional needs at this time. Thanks! Sue

      Deb, thanks so much for your prayers, and your visit! You just don't know how much that meant to me. I was truly shocked to see you there. It was very comforting to know you cared. Thanks so much(I've known it all along, but in a time like this it is magnified). Love, Sue

    This is such a hard time for a family, whether you are "prepared" for it or not. I am so sorry.

      I guess you can never truly be "prepared". I know I will miss him but I wouldn't him back to suffer. I know he is in a better place. Thanks so much! Sue

SOLC 2012: 6 of 31 March 6, 2012 Sink or Swim?

Sink or swim could mean the same to many people and to others different meanings. How profound! I think in writing, to sink or swim would be to just get started and not stop.  What have you got to lose?    I went back to college when I was 39 years old to get my English degree.  I had a B.S. from college in Home Economics at that time, but was unable to find a teaching job so thought I'd add to my license so I could teach. Try going back to school with students who are approximately twenty years younger than you.  Talk about a challenge.

June 21, 2011 First Day of Summer

First I have to make a few comments about a workshop I went to yesterday. It was the All Write Institute and it was so inspiring!  It's like a breath of fresh air and like the first day of spring and summer, a new beginning! It makes me feel ready to begin again.  With the Keynote, I listened to six speakers.  Some of course were the same speakers because I liked Jeff Anderson so much, I went back to hear him twice.  I felt he could help me with what I wanted to learn at this time to help my students the most at this time. With that said, summer brings in things we don't have to do; we don't have to wear winter coats, no worry about snow or shoveling, the lack of ice on the roads makes it so much easier to drive and easier to walk, we don't freeze and have cold breezes that make it hard to breathe in the cold, no fear of sickness like colds or flu, and finally we feel more like being outside (well I don't like cold) so I stay inside more in the winter.
