I am on retreat. The last retreat I participated in was long ago and for religious purposes. Today I am retreating with all of the principals in my cluster of schools and we are planning for the new year. Taking part in these daily activities brings back memories – all good ones.
I am about two [...]

With a day in the house minus the contractors, I had the opportunity to catch up on some important reading and relaxation. For some reason I woke up extremely tired. I was even quiet and not my talkative self which prompted T to ask his usual “what’s wrong” to which I had no [...]

I’d hammer in the morning like the contractors are doing today. Yesterday the demolition of our second floor bathroom took place and it was amazing to see the before and after shots of the construction work. T and I left for an hour or so to play some tennis while te workers hauled [...]

Today is going to be just one of those days – the days I really like because they tend to go smoothly and quickly. Looking at my calendar for today, there is very little wiggle room for unscheduled appointments which is usually not a good thing since something always tends to come up at school [...]

Our weekend journey began on Friday when T and I went into DC to see The History Boys which had been extended [...]
