Gray Matters

Things currently wondering through (no longer occupying) spaces in my brain...Cornell note-taking, documentaries about America's great stories and people... my responsibilities at work... reading articles about teaching writing, about teaching reading, about the latest iteration of ongoing education reform... the best way to approach my upcoming course ... my off and on spirituality, the ebb and flow of my daily life ... Advent... Little Liam and the current generation of Hannons... wishing I could do something for Audrey.... thankful for my objectively-speaking easy life... what to do about Ja'Nelle.... thinking about my finances as I begin a ten-year countdown to retirement... knowing I need to live in the present, being "present" to others... my right posterior tibial tendon and its rehabilitation... my boot camp book club... fixing the summer reading Infinite Campus fiasco... how I have managed to forget almost everything I ever read or studied.... gleeful guilt that Norma did my laundry and put out my Christmas decorations.... shopping... a sublimely ridiculous Saturday afternoon on blogspot...
