Busy Week

I walked outside for the first time this past Wednesday. I was the first person in my district to cast a vote for the best candidates for the Board of Education in Bloomfield. It felt great to be outside if only for 20 minutes.


Sunday was sunny and bright only in the a.m., but I had a chance to go outside for about half an hour. I do not like walking outside without someone to watch over me because I have fallen three times already and cannot risk hurting my left foot. I have to wait until May 12th for the surgeon to allow me to start physical therapy. I cannot wait to be able to walk normally.

I can honestly say that I have spent the past four weeks working 24/7 on course-related activities, responding to emails, and trying to complete my own research. I thought I could rest for a while, but that did not happen. However, being sidelined gives one an opportunity to reflect on what has happened in the past few years. It is time for me to make some changes and focus on the things I enjoy doing and researching. Life is too short to be wasted on petty concerns because it is over before we have had a chance to accomplish all our goals.
